Brown v Board of Education

Detailed explanation-1: -The court found that the First Amendment applied to public schools, and school officials could not censor student speech unless it disrupted the educational process. Because wearing a black armband was not disruptive, the court held that the First Amendment protected the right of students to wear them.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why does Tinker v. Des Moines remain an important precedent-setting case? It protected all symbolic speech in war protests.
Detailed explanation-3: -In Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District, 393 U.S. 503 (1969), the Supreme Court ruled that public school officials cannot censor student expression unless they can reasonably forecast that the speech will substantially disrupt school activities or invade the rights of others.
