Abstract
In researching the book, Kozol visited nearly 60 schools in 11 states in the past five years and notes that the level of segregation today is higher than any time since 1968. His book is a fierce indictment of segregation, funding inequalities, and the drill-and-kill curricula that are heavily promoted in schools that serve low-income students and students of color. Kozol's book calls upon us to confront and remedy the dire system of inequality that reigns in U.S. schools today.
