Board of Education that segregated schools were unconstitutional. However, the Court did not specify how the ruling would be implemented. A year later, the Court issued a second ruling, known as Brown II, which declared that school districts should act "with all deliberate speed". The Court's opinion, which didn't specify a time frame, reflected the tension between those who insisted on immediate integration and those who opposed it.
