What was the Supreme Court decision influenced by Myrdal's work?

  • Brown v. Board of Education

Answer

Brown v. Board of Education was influenced by Gunnar Myrdal's work, particularly his book "An American Dilemma: The Negro Problem and Modern Democracy." Myrdal's research and analysis of the social and economic conditions of African Americans in the United States provided a comprehensive and authoritative account of the systemic racism and discrimination faced by the Black community.
