Quentin Wheeler-Bell – Philosophical Inquiry in Education, 2023
Since the Second World War, racial integration has been the dominant way of framing racial justice.

However, racial integration was critiqued most radically and vocally during the 1970s and early…

Angrist. Joshua; Gray-Lobe, Guthrie; Idoux, Clemence M.; Pathak, Parag A. – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2022
School assignment in Boston and New York City came to national attention in the 1970s as courts across the country tried to integrate schools. Today, district-wide choice allows Boston and New York students to enroll far from home, perhaps enhancing integration. Urban school transportation is increasingly costly, however, and has unclear…

Behtoui, Alireza – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2023

Dorner, Lisa M.; Moon, Jeong-Mi; Freire, Juan; Gambrell, James; Kasun, G. Sue; Cervantes-Soon, Claudia – Peabody Journal of Education, 2023
Across the United States, cities like St. Louis may be perceived as predominantly Black/White and monolingual.

Blum, Lawrence; Burkholder, Zoë – University of Chicago Press, 2021
The promise of a free, high-quality public education is supposed to guarantee every child a shot at the American dream. But our widely segregated schools mean that many children of color do not have access to educational opportunities equal to those of their white peers. In "Integrations," historian Zoë Burkholder and philosopher…

Cornell L. Craig – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Whiteness fits the broad historical concept of property as it represents a social and material value as well as historical legal rights (Harris, 1993). Harris (1993) traced the history of racialization as justification for which people were legally citizens with the ability of self-possession and which people were relegated as the property of…

Slate, Nico – History of Education Quarterly, 2022
Scholars have demonstrated that a range of institutions, organizations, and "social movement schools" aimed to advance the civil rights movement through education. What remains unclear is how those institutions balanced conversation, direct instruction, role-play, and other pedagogical methods. This article focuses on the Highlander Folk…

Krista Elise Leh – ProQuest LLC, 2022
There is a gap in the empirical and conceptual literature that connects transformational leaders to relevant frameworks assisting with within-district racial and socioeconomic integration.
