- catalog abstract "Annotation Comparing segregation in housing and schooling, 12 essays consider the problem critically, with attention to its implications for American democracy. The role of the law is stressed, and key decisions (like Brown v. Board of Education and Milliken) discussed. A concluding essay sketches a strategy for linking housing and education. Contributors include lawyers, civil rights advocates, and scholars of psychology, law, sociology, education, and public policy. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com). Annotation More than forty years after the Supreme Court's landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education, segregation persists in our schools. In Pursuit of a Dream Deferred turns a critical eye toward this continuing problem and its relationship to housing segregation in the United States. This analysis comes at an important juncture in American history, as policymakers and school officials increasingly talk about the value of colorblind policies, vouchers, and neighborhood schools. The scholarship that currently addresses issues of segregation has focused on either housing or education, but not their interrelationship.".
