70th Anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education Commemorated with Re-Release of Separate But Equal DVD from Paramount Home Entertainment

On May 17, 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court made one of the most significant legal decisions of the 20th century when the justices unanimously ruled that racial segregation in public schools is unconstitutional. The decision in Brown v. Board of Education was a major victory for the civil rights movement and dramatically altered American society.

To commemorate the 70th anniversary of that landmark decision, Paramount Home Entertainment will re-release writer/director George Stevens, Jr.’s Emmy® Award-winning masterpiece Separate But Equal on DVD on May 7, 2024.

DVD SPECIAL FEATURE: In addition to the feature presentation, the DVD includes the 1954 CBS News Special “See It Now: A Study of Two Cities” hosted by Edward R. Murrow.

SYNOPSIS: Oscar® winner Sidney Poitier gives a commanding performance in Separate But Equal, the fascinating true story of the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision that became the first major victory in the battle for civil rights in America. It began in small-town South Carolina and blossomed into the most important judicial decision of the 20th century. At its heart lies an incredible tale of national policy created by a cunning lawyer, powerful back-room deals, and the desire of a small boy to live the American Dream. This compelling, evocative drama co-stars Academy Award® winner Burt Lancaster in his poignant final role as legendary attorney John W. Davis.
