Topeka ? Several white supremacist groups that are expected to protest the dedication of the Brown vs. Board of Education National Historic Site next month will not be allowed on the federal property that day, site superintendent Stephen E. Adams says.

The dedication at the old Monroe Elementary School will be on May 17, the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that declared racially segregated schools unconstitutional.

Protesters, said site spokeswoman LaTonya Miller, “will not be allowed to stand on the property May 17.”

“That is the superintendent’s call, and he has waived the First Amendment right for the grand opening,” she said.

Miller said the White Revolution, the White Knights and the Ku Klux Klan are expected to protest the dedication. Only the White Revolution has confirmed its protest plans.

The old school property now belongs to the federal government and is part of the National Park System. Protesters do not need a permit to protest on the public property across the street from the historic site. If they were to plan to parade on a public street, they would need a permit from the city.

Officials of the Arkansas-based White Revolution said they would demonstrate across the street from the historic site on May 15. Chairman Billy Roper said other “pro-white” organizations, including Aryan Nations and the National Socialist Movement, would attend the protest.

In a news release, Roper said the decision was nothing “to celebrate.”

Police in Topeka are reviewing security measures for the event.

“There are security remedies being put in place to ensure safety,” Lt. Randy Listrom said. “We need to interact with those individuals planning on picketing at the event because it won’t be free access.”

The Monroe school was one of four in Topeka that were set aside to be used for black children. Oliver Brown filed suit after denial of his request that his daughter be allowed to attend an all-white school that was closer to their home.

That lawsuit, along with three similar suits from Delaware, South Carolina and Virginia, resulted in the decision overturning the court’s earlier “separate but equal” doctrine.
