Louis Brandeis was the first Jew to sit on the U.S. Supreme Court


“The 1954 Supreme Court ruling in Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka may some day be ranked as the Fort Sumter of the second American Civil War. Although the Constitution says nothing about education, the Court ordered the desegregation of all public schools on the ground that segregation denies equal opportunities to minorities. Even if school facilities were equal – as some were, but most were not – the very fact of separation, in the Court’s view, was generating in children “a feeling of inferiority as to their status in the community that may affect their hearts and minds in ways unlikely ever to be undone.” The Court built its case on the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment. In reaching its decision the Court took judicial notice of sociological evidence which had not been heard in the lower courts and which was introduced during its hearings by a legal technicality known as the “Brandeis brief.” Normally, appeal courts did not permit the injection of new facts or new evidence. But Brandeis, when a Supreme Court Justice, broke this longtime precedent by encouraging the admission of briefs containing materials which he considered unquestionable and not openly prejudiced against either side of the dispute. As it turned out, the “Brandeis brief” heard by the Supreme Court in Brown was simply the repetition and elaboration of the liberal-minority thesis of racial equalitarianism. The genetic side of the argument and the effect of integration on the education of white children were totally ignored. The defense was permitted no rebuttal.”
