Location: Federal Judicial Center, Federal Judicial History Office, Thurgood Marshall Federal Judiciary Building, 1 Columbus Circle Northeast, Washington, DC 20544
Description: On September 4, 1952, A.P. Tureaud, the chief legal counsel of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), filed the legal case Bush v.

The lawsuit sought the racial desegregation of the New Orleans public schools. On February 15, 1956, a three-judge district court held that the state statutes designed to thwart school desegregation and the Louisiana state constitutional provisions that required school segregation violated the U.S. Constitution. Later that day, Judge J. Skelly Wright held that the Orleans Parish Schools were unconstitutionally segregated and ordered the Orleans Parish School Board to end school segregation.
