How is deciding to (finally) enforce the Fourteenth Amendment that had been on the books for a century by that point a matter of violating state's rights?  The Constitution's Supremacy Clause states that the Constitution is higher than state laws or state constitutions.  It's just a matter that in Brown Supreme Court finally woke up to what "equal protection" actually meant.
