 red an early blow to school segregation right here in Montgomery County&md
 ash\;gaining equal pay for the county&rsquo\;s African American teachers i
 n 1937. This little-known legal case is often seen as the first step in Ma
 rshall&rsquo\;s successful drive to have separate schools for white and bl
 ack children declared unconstitutional\, as the Supreme Court did 17 years
  later in a landmark decision. Join us as Ralph Buglass details this remar
