• Urban Perspectives; Brown V. Board: Postscript for an Uncertain Future

American racism is the dominant interpretative framework for rendering bodies intelligible. Jim Crow was not merely an oppressive legal regime; it consolidated the imaginative lens through which Americans would view race moving forward into the future...It reaffirmed the binary system through which Americans tend to think of race, i.e., "black" and "white" Jim Crow unceremoniously erased intermediate categories through the biologically ridiculous, but politically necessary notion that "one drop" of black blood rendered an individual black. The Court in Brown, categorically equates equality with "integration," where integration entails securing some sort of proximal relationship with white bodies in the same school or class. This integration ethic centralizes whiteness. White bodies are ...

• The Future of Diversity and Affirmative Action

On May 17, we will honor the fifty-third anniversary of [Oliver Brown] v. Board of Education, when the Supreme Court, pressed by Thurgood Marshall, shook the pillars of segregation in announcing its new and resounding principle that "separate is inherently unequal." This May is once again a month of reckoning; and as much as we would like to celebrate this shared past, we must also remain vigilant as the Court gets ready to issue opinions in two public school cases that threaten to chip away at Brown's legacy of racial justice and diversity. If successful, both cases - Parents Involved in Community Schools v. Seattle School District No. 1 and Crystal Meredith v. Jefferson County Board of Education - will ban local districts from implementing voluntary desegregation programs that seek to...
