Abstract
Using Missouri-based judicial opinions, this Essay demonstrates the influence of majoritarian narratives and how evolving rhetoric perpetuated stagnant narratives. In other words, these opinions, when viewed in histori- cal context, demonstrate how the "status quo narrative" continued in society even after the law changed. This Essay examines opinions centered on both the legal and de facto segregation of African Americans and whites in three landmark cases: State ex rel. Gaines v. Canada,29 Kraemer v. Shelley,30 and Liddell v. Board ofEducation.
