520 |a "Despite its image as an epicenter of progressive social policy, New York City continues to have one of the nation's most segregated school systems. Tracing the quest for integration in education from the mid-1950s to the present, The Battle Nearer to Home follows the tireless efforts by educational activists to dismantle the deep racial and socioeconomic inequalities that segregation reinforces. The fight for integration has shifted significantly over time, not least in terms of the way "integration" is conceived. From 1954 to 1964, Black parents and educational activists exerted sustained pressure on the city's Board of Education to foster integration through means such as the voluntary or mandatory transfers of students and redrawing school attendance zones, among others. As popular white resistance to these measures intensified, the Board rescinded its lukewarm support. By the late 1960s, frustrated parents and activists shifted their demands to community control of segregated schools. As with integration demands, the Board eventually pulled the plug in the face of resistance from more powerful stakeholders. From the early 1970s to 2012, integration receded as a possible solution to educational inequality. In excavating the history of New York City school integration politics, in the halls of power and on the ground, Christopher Bonastia unearths the enduring white resistance to integration and the severe costs paid by Black and Latino students. This last decade has seen student activists renew the fight for integration, insisting on the equalization of resources between schools, responsive teaching staffs, and the creation of diverse and inclusive school communities. But the war is still far from won"--  |c Provided by publisher.
