Seller's Description:
As New. No Jacket. This book is about the education of African Americans in large cities; the authors studied the largest school systems in the country to see how public school decentralization, aimed a improving the education of minorities, was conceived and implemented; they conclude that decentralization solves the problem of segregation by subordinating African Americans in the competition for educational resources while legitimating subordination in terms of equality and power; whites maintain their hegemony and blacks maintain control of urban institutions like public shool systems; school systems are kept separate and unequal and the racial conflict that sparked integration is transformed into concensus about the importance of empowering the community (white & green laminated covers)
