Explanation:

The Sweatt v. Painter (1946) struck down “separate but equal” graduate and professional schools. More specifically, the case established that Sweatt, a black man who had applied for admission to the University of Texas Law School and had been rejected, should be admitted to the University, basing on the Equal Protection Clause. The Court held that the other University for black people "law school for Negroes," which the University would have opened the following year, would have been totally unequal to the University of Texas Law School, in terms of quality, facilities, and opportunities.

As for the Brown v. Board of Education case (1954), it struck down “separate but equal” public schools as the Supreme Court determined that racial segregation of children in public schools was unconstitutional, because “separate but equal” facilities were, in fact, unequal and considered a form of discrimination that instilled a sense of inferiority to African Americans children and thus it violated the 14th Amendment.
