      • 9 hours of reading

      Focusing on the complexities of school desegregation, the narrative explores why it was not fully embraced by the black community despite its success in narrowing the achievement gap. Highlighting a pivotal 2007 Supreme Court case from Louisville, the book examines its implications for race relations in American schools and civil rights. Through personal stories of families involved in the desegregation debate, the author reframes the understanding of race and education, making a significant contribution to the ongoing fight for racial equality.
