Yes!

There is an interesting story about Nixon pushing Abe Fortas off the Supreme Court. This tilted the court enough to start limiting the previous desegregation rulings.

This is my post I published today. It outlines the pushback against desegregation at the local level. Fairfax County, Virginia

Thanks for sharing your detailed article on desegregation in Virginia where it seems when they were told to end “separate but equal” they replaced it with “separate and unequal.” :/
