Supreme Court Rules Against Racial Restrictive Covenants
The Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice Fred Vinson, declares enforcement of restrictive covenants a violation of the 14th Amendment. The decision bars state and federal courts from upholding agreements that forbid sale to people of certain races or religions, ending decades of such practices in many communities. Purchasers often faced covenants restricting sale to nonwhite or nonreligious buyers, sometimes in perpetuity.
