The Color of School Reform
Why is it so difficult to design and implement fundamental educational reform in large city schools in spite of broad popular support for change? How does the politics of race complicate the challenge of building and sustaining coalitions for improving urban schools?

It is based on observations and in-depth interviews with school board members and superintendents, as well as staff, community mem...
