dbo:abstract
  • Frederick Douglass High School, established in 1883, is an American public high school in the Baltimore City Public Schools district. Originally named the Colored High and Training School, Douglass is the second-oldest U.S. high school created specifically for African American students. Prior to desegregation, Douglass and Paul Laurence Dunbar High School were the only two high schools in Baltimore that admitted African-American students, with Douglass serving students from West Baltimore and Dunbar serving students from East Baltimore. Former Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall (1908–1993) is one of Douglass's most notable alumni. After graduating from Douglass in 1926, Marshall went on to college and law school, passing the bar and becoming a lawyer. Representing the NAACP, he successfully challenged school segregation in the landmark Supreme Court case, Brown v. Board of Education (1954). The Supreme Court ruled that segregated, separate but equal, in public education was unconstitutional because it could never truly be equal. Due to residential segregation and changes in the demographics of Baltimore, as of 2008 the overwhelming majority of students at Douglass were African American and many were poor. It was one of the eleven lowest performing schools in the state of Maryland. (en)
  • O Colégio Frederick Douglass, fundado em 1883, é uma escola pública de colegial que fica no Distrito de Escolas Públicas da Cidade de Baltimore. Douglass é o segundo colegial criado especificamente para estudantes afro-americanos mais velho dos Estados Unidos. Antes da fim da segregação racial, Douglass e o Colégio Paul Laurence Dunbar eram os únicos colegiais em Baltimore que aceitavam alunos negros, sendo que Douglass era composta com os estudantes do oeste de Baltimore e Dunbar para os estudantes do leste. O antigo juiz associado da Suprema Corte Thurgood Marshall (1908–1993) é um dos ex-alunos mais notáveis do Colégio Douglas. Depois de se formar em Douglass em 1926, Marshall foi para a faculdade e a escola jurídica, se tornando advogado. Representando a NAACP, ele teve sucesso ao contestar a segregação racial nas escolas e no caso marcante da Suprema Corte, Brown v. Board of Education (1954). A Suprema Corte decidiu que a segregação, cuja ideia principal era separados mas iguais, na educação pública era inconstitucional porque essa educação não poderia ser verdadeiramente igualitária. Devido à segregação residencial e às mudanças na demografia de Baltimore, no ano de 2008 a maior parte dos estudantes do Douglass eram afro-americanos e muitos deles eram pobres. Era uma das onze escolas com o pior desempenho no estado de Maryland. (pt)
