Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer first aired 12 days before the Supreme Court finally ruled that the national government could force businesses to desegregate (although of course formally segregated school districts continued into the early 70s, and segregated proms were still a thing up through 2013 in parts of Georgia)
