Desegregation: Can We Get There from Here?

Bates, Percy

Phi Delta Kappan, v72 n1 p8-17 Sep 1990

Although the physical separation of school-age children is less common since "Brown v. the Board of Education," the number of students attending racially isolated schools is increasing. Several factors are shaping resistance to true desegregation, including the limitations set by racism, legally mandated change, court focus, demographics, and guilt reactions. Includes 36 references.
