Show, in your response, that you are doing the readings for this week. 2. What was the Brown v Board of Education decision and why didn't it immediately change things in the Southern states? 3.

Know the overall context of the Cold War. 4. What were the McCarthy hearings of 1954 and did they symbolize the end of McCarthy's reign? 5.
