MinnPost and Racial Segregation in Schools
November 19th, 2008 by Mike Smart
MinnPost, the Twin Cities’ respected and growing online news site, is running a five-part series this week on segregation in Minnesota’s schools. It’s great to see MinnPost bring education to the forefront of their news coverage. With the economy, energy, the election, and foreign policy dominating news coverage of late, it seems that there has been a dearth of educational coverage.
The MinnPost articles are well written and thought provoking. I’m going to hold off on commenting until I’ve read all five pieces, but they are well worth the time. Here are links to the articles:
Monday: Twin Cities-area schools more segregated than ever
Tuesday: Minority populations in suburbs rise…
Wednesday: The rise of voluntarily segregated schools…
Thursday: State and educators can’t agree…
Friday: A better way to integrate schools…
