CHARLES B. BOOKER AND MRS. ANNA BOOKER Longtime Civil Rights Activists Who Fought for the Desegregation of Plainfield Schools Plainfield, N.J. – February 17, 2021 - The Plainfield Board of Education voted on Tuesday to name the new school under construction at the site of the former Woodland Elementary School, The Charles and Anna Booker School. The Bookers, as they are affectionately known in Plainfield, are civil rights activist who fought for the desegregation of the Plainfield public schools and are active members of the community. In 1965, Mr. Booker, an Army Veteran, who worked for the Veterans Affairs and later for the U.S. Housing and Urban Development, in New York, and his wife Anna, one of the first two African American teachers hired in Metuchen, brought the suit against the Plainfield Board of Education after numerous attempts failed to correct the imbalance in education for African American students in Plainfield. Mrs. Booker said the books were outdated, the education was inferior and the children were feeling neglected by their schools. With the help of the NAACP and its lead litigator Robert L. Carter, the Bookers sued and won. The case, Charles B. Booker v. The Board of Education of the City of Plainfield, was decided on June 28, 1965. The suit changed how the students were placed in schools and how funding was allocated.
