Extracurricular Activities and Disadvantaged Youth: A Complicated-But Promising-Story
Increased political and research interest in extracurricular activities stems, in part, from the claim that these programs especially benefit disadvantaged youth. However, little literature has synthesized studies across types of disadvantage to assess this claim. This article reviews research on disadvantaged youth in extracurricular programs, including differences by gender, socioeconomic status, race/ethnicity, and immigrant status. Our review…
Doing the Impossible: The Limits of Schooling, the Power of Poverty
The idea that schools can have little influence on children coming from poor homes and neighborhoods is often attributed to the 1966 Coleman Report. At one time, this position was clearly favored by conservatives seeking to minimize public investments; more recently, it has been embraced by progressives arguing to increase public investments in poor children. In either form, arguments about the inability of schools to effectively speak to the nee…

Waiting 'Til The Midnight Hour: A Narrative History of Black Power in America
I've Got the Light of Freedom: The Organizing Tradition and the Mississippi Freedom Struggle, With a New Preface
Time Longer than Rope: A Century of African American Activism, 1850-1950
The story of the rights movement is well-known, popularized by both the media and the academy. Yet the version of the story recounted time and again by both history books and PBS documentaries is a simplified one, reduced to an inspirational but ultimately facile narrative framed around Dr. King, the Kennedys, and the redemptive days of Montgomery and Memphis, in which black individuals become the rescued survivors. This story renders the mass of…
The Whole United States Is Southern: Brown v. Board and the Mystification of Race
We are not only culturally confused, our confusion makes it difficult for us even to imagine our confusion. —Lawrence Goodwyn To see what is in front of one's nose needs a constant struggle. —George Orwell Brown v. Board of Education (1954) is becoming a milestone in search of something to signify. It would be going too far to think of the case as an early example of a media event, as more hype than substance, but even with a half century of pers…

The contributors show how blacks and Mexican-Americans in the South, along with the Justice Department, have used the Act and the US Constitution to overcome the resistance of white officials to minority mobilization.

Within days of assuming the presidency, Lyndon Johnson publicly committed himself to civil rights as a memorial to his predecessor. Privately he told Georgia's Senator Richard…
