- W342836720 abstract "Dorinda J. Carter, Stella M. Flores, and Richard J. Reddick's Legacies of Brown: Multiracial Equity in American Education (Harvard Educational Review 2004) One year ago, during my sophomore year at Claremont High School, a predominately White high school in our Los Angeles middle class suburban town of Claremont, my Advanced Placement (AP) English class was engaged in a heated debate over the issues raised in Ralph Ellison's The Invisible Man. The themes in the novel prompted an intense discussion on race in our country. At one point in the discussion, a White student pointed out the irony that while the novel was about the Black struggle for equality in America, there were no Black students in the classroom. Our class was known as an academically rigorous class, and there were no Black students in the room to contribute to the discussion. At that point, we realized how the issues raised in Ellison's novel are relevant to current life in America. Even though 30 percent of the student body were students of color, I was the only one of a few minorities in all of my AP classes. This year, I am attending Cambridge Rindge & Latin School in Cambridge, Mass., while my father pursues a master in public administration at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. In contrast to my California high school, the high school I am attending in Cambridge has an overwhelming number of students of color. In fact, minorities are the majority at our school. Despite this change in demographics, I continue to be the only Latina and one of two students of color in my demanding AP and honors curricula. How can it be that inequality and segregation within this nation's educational system persists fifty years after the landmark Supreme Court decision Brown v. Board of Education? The book Legacies of Brown: Multiracial Equity in American Education discusses this dilemma facing the American educational system through different commentaries written by scholars and civil rights activists. This collection of essays provides insight on what followed after this historic case and provides a framework for understanding the challenges that remain. Part One provides a solid historical overview of the effects of the major legal cases involving desegregation in schools following the Brown v. Board of Education ruling. Particularly informative is the article written by Guadalupe San Miguel, Jr., and Richard R. Valencia, From the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo to Hopwood: The Educational Plight and Struggle of Mexican Americans in the Southwest. This piece provides a survey of the major milestones in the struggle for educational parity among Mexican Americans, identifying the specific barriers being challenged and the results of the community's interventions. The authors offer an unsettling conclusion: As Mexican American and Latino populations grow dramatically, their educational conditions are, in fact, worsening (161). …" @default.
