More than 60 years after the Brown v. Board of Education decision declared segregated schooling inherently unequal, this timely book sheds light on how and why U.S. schools are experiencing increasing segregation along racial, socioeconomic, and linguistic lines. It offers policy and programmatic alternatives for advancing equity and describes the implications for students and more broadly for the nation. The authors look at the structural and legal roots of inequity in the United States educational system and examine opportunities to support integration efforts across the educational pipeline (pre-k to higher education).

School Integration Matters examines:

  • The need to increase school integration to advance equity.
  • The roots of persisting inequity in U.S. schools.
  • Current practices that adversely affect historically marginalized groups.
  • K–12 integration and bilingual education policy.
  • The challenges and opportunities to advancing integration within higher education.
  • Future directions and policy recommendations for pursuing integration for equity.

“This is the book that reignites the civil rights movement for the 21st century, written and edited by a powerful new generation of civil rights scholars.”
Patricia Gandara, co-director, The Civil Rights Project, UCLA

“This is visionary scholarship at its best and it moves far beyond the policy vacuum and the black-white paradigm to suggest workable solutions for a multiracial future. Educators and policy makers need this book.”
Gary Orfield, Co-Director, Civil Rights Project, UCLA

Contributors: Martha Cecilia Bottia, Courtney D. Cogburn, Erica Frankenberg, Liliana M. Garces, Rachel Garver, Cynthia Gordon da Cruz, Mariela Gutierrez, Megan Hopkins, Michael Hilton, Daniel Kiel, Richard Lambert, Savannah Larimore, Rebecca Lowenhaupt, Roslyn Arlin Mickelson, P. Zitlali Morales, Lindsay Pérez Huber, Aria Razfar, Jeanne L. Reid, Matthew Patrick Shaw, Philip Tegeler, Hoang Vu Tran, Tina Trujillo, Brenda Pulido Villanueva
