For two years, beginning in 1988, Jonathan Kozol visited schools in
neighborhoods across the country, from Illinois to Washington D.C.,
and from New York to San Antonio.He spoke with teachers,
principals, superintendents, and, most important, children. What he
found was devastating. Not only were schools for rich and poor
blatantly unequal, the gulf between the two extremes was
widening--and it has widened since. The urban schools he visited
were overcrowded and understaffed, and lacked the basic elements of
learning--including books and, all too often, classrooms for the
students.
In "Savage Inequalities," Kozol delivers a searing examination of
the extremes of wealth and poverty and calls into question the
reality of equal opportunity in our nation's schools.
