About this book
Who built opportunities to learn, and what did equal schooling require? Written for grades 6–12, with adult support for younger readers, this book explores Black educational traditions, community-built schools, the work of teachers, student organizing, Brown v. Board of Education, and the decisions that followed desegregation. Twelve chapters include guiding questions, reflection questions, short inquiries, and teacher notes, supported by a timeline, vocabulary, and source notes.
