Pearsall Plan

"September 8,1956, N.C. voters approved the Pearsall Plan to prolong segregation & thwart Brown v Board of Education. A committee had decided integration ‘should not be attempted’ because of low support. Local votes on integration & vouchers for private tuition were est. All measures of the plan were unconstitutional."
