Many southern states continued to resist desegregation following the Brown v. Board of Education ruling. This resistance took various forms, including the implementation of "massive resistance" campaigns, the closure of public schools, and the establishment of private schools that were segregated. Some states passed laws to circumvent the ruling, and there were instances of violent opposition to efforts to integrate schools.
