Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:
Other problems: - I think court cases are typically italicized, so the bold text should be in italics too.
- Not needed, but Though quickly forgotten afterwards, it is the first victory against educational segregation can be clarified: "it is the first legal victory".

evrik, what makes May 5 a special occasion with regard to this nomination? The only date in the article is April 17, 1914, in the infobox, the date of the decision. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:07, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Well, on May 5, people in the US focus on all things Mexican, if it were to go up any day in the next month, why not then? I may be able to find a photo. --evrik ^(talk) 16:45, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
