Book excerpt: The African-American Baseline Essays are a set of culturally specific curricular documents published in 1987 by the Portland Public Schools (PPS) to enhance existing curriculum with a multicultural perspective for the benefit of all students. These documents were the result of efforts on the part of Portland's Black community in the late 1970s and 1980s to demand an end to de facto segregation in the district, and to correct racial bias present in the district's curriculum. From the 1960s onward, a train of proposals were at the center of the debate over how to meet the requirements of the Brown v Board of Education decision in Portland- forced busing of black students out of neighborhood schools, optional busing of white students in, and the establishment of new schools and/or new school boundaries, for example. But what seem to be more critical and lasting contributions from this era are not school or district boundaries, new buildings, or busing policies, but an initial set of documents designed to be the first fruits of a sweeping curricular overhaul. This thesis looks at the African American Baseline Essays as the result of a series of struggles among local and national actors to redress inequity in the American educational system. It also recasts the popular and media-driven stigma attached to "multiculturalism" in the 1980s and 1990s with a more nuanced intellectual and political story. The political narrative connects efforts to resist racism and oppression in Portland, Oregon with the global struggle for liberation represented by the articulation of Africa in the voices of Africans and African Americans. Intellectually, this thesis narrates a challenge to the epistemological hegemony of "Western" thought and ways of knowing embodied in the community-based demand for quality education and the subsequent production of the Baseline Essays.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great progress of recent years towards school integration has not been uniform: pockets of resistance remain and the issues involved in school desegregation continue to arouse public controversy and confusion. Sixteen years after the Supreme Court (in Brown vs Topeka) had ruled that school segregation compelled or sanctioned by law unconstitutional, there is still no widespread understanding of the nature and scope of the issues. The Civil Rights Commission believes that public understanding of the issues involved in school desegregation is essential if they are to be resolved satisfactorily. Many of these issues are legal in nature and require careful analysis of relevant court decisions. Other issues involve practical questions concerning the quality of education afforded to the Nation's children. Still others relate to fundamental human and moral questions of national conscience. The Commission speaks out in the hope that it can shed light on the issues and, by so doing, contribute to their successful resolution. The issue of school desegregation, like other issues of national concern, has roots deep in history; to understand fully the present situation and to form a sound basis for determining courses of action for the future, what that history has been must first be understood.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1958, facing court-ordered integration, Virginia's governor closed public schools in three cities. His action provoked not only the NAACP but also large numbers of white middle-class Virginians who organized to protest school closings. This compilation of essays explores this contentious period in the state's history. Contributors argue that the moderate revolt against conservative resistance to integration reshaped the balance of power in the state but also delayed substantial school desegregation.
