Fly in the Ointment chronicles the history of two school districts
in the Upper Mill Creek (Ohio) Valley of the Greater Cincinnati
Metropolitan area. The creation of both the black Lincoln Heights
School District and the predominately white Princeton School
District in the 1950s is a history of segregation while the merger
of these two districts in the 1970s - close to twenty years after
their formation - tells a unique story of desegregation. The author
uses various methodologies to provide an accurate account from
different perspectives of school segregation and desegregation in a
specific region of the country. Fly in the Ointment combines «
fictional storytelling - an approach supported by critical race
theory - with historical and interview data to tell a complete
narrative, including important yet often unheard voices. The story
of the Lincoln Heights School District and the Princeton School
District illuminates the political, social, economic, and, of
course, racial factors that led to their separation and union.
