This book illuminates the effects of segregation, desegregation,
and integration on students, practitioners, communities, and
policymakers in the fifty years since the landmark Brown v. Board
of Education ruling. Articles by leading legal and education
scholars address questions that are central to the Brown rulings'
complex and immensely influential legacy: Has the promise of Brown
been realized for all students in public schools? What effects,
both positive and negative, have occurred throughout educational
communities in the United States as a result of this court
decision? How has the process of integration fared in the
educational outcomes of African American, Latino, Asian American,
Native American, and immigrant youth? In an essay written expressly
for this volume, Harvard Law Professor Martha Minow offers her
assessment of what has changed, and not, in the decades since
Brown. Additional contributions from leading scholars offer a broad
range of views on this complex and contested territory. A first
group of articles focuses on desegregation policies and legal
issues. Another section of essays examines the educational effects
of integration policies on a wide range of racial and ethnic
groups. As these latter articles clearly suggest, the
implementation and consequences of integration policies in U.S.
schools have turned out to be far more complex and various than the
education community ever imagined in 1954.
