La scuola è fatta di carte (le proverbiali scartoffie), documenti, dichiarazioni, certificazioni, autocertificazioni, comunicazioni ufficiali, decisioni auspicabilmente condivise almeno dalla maggioranza di chi deve prenderle, relazioni, scelte individuali e collettive. La scuola è tutto questo. E da tutto questo non si prescinde.

Le scuole private clericali sono floridissime in Italia. Nessuna legge ne inceppa lo sviluppo e la libera esplicazione. Esse possono fare la concorrenza che vogliono alla scuola di Stato. Se sono migliori, se dànno ai frequentatori una istruzione migliore di quella che sia possibile trovare nelle scuole pubbliche, esse possono moltiplicarsi all'infinito, possono far pagare le rette che vogliono. Lo Stato riconosce il diritto di comprare la merce «istruzione» dove si vuole.

Time and again, teachers of color have been blamed for every conceivable wrong in urban schools, a tactic that ignores the history of racism and bolsters the expansion of charter schools that lack community roots.

Instead, suspension disrupts their education, harming the students, their families, and their schools.

Many activists and scholars have considered how school punishment increases racial inequity, but few have thought to ask why.

Cookson, Jr., lays out a blueprint for providing equitable educational opportunities for students from all socioeconomic strata, and particularly for the five million American children who live with the extreme material hardship known as deep poverty.

In so doing, it exposed the unfinished business of the civil rights era and the limits of diversity and inclusion reforms.
