Sommario/riassunto |
|
Traditional narratives of black educational history suggest that African Americans offered a unified voice concerning Brown v. Board of Education. Jack Dougherty counters this interpretation, demonstrating that black activists engaged in multiple and often conflicting strategies to advance the race by gaining greater control over schools. |
