The Shame Of The Nation by Jonathan Kozol
The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America
A searing examination of the resegregation of American public schools that documents how racial and economic isolation has produced stark disparities in funding, facilities, teacher quality, and curricular opportunity; through on-the-ground reporting and data the book shows overcrowded, under-resourced schools and the human consequences of policy choices, frames the situation as a moral and civil-rights crisis, and calls for political will, enforced integration, and equitable resources to restore genuine educational opportunity for children in poor, predominantly nonwhite communities.
