Are America’s schools being resegregated? In this article from Harvard’s Ed.magazine, Hanna Bordas notes that many court decisions nationwide in the 1980s and 1990s resulted in school desegregation orders being removed.

Bordas looks back on the history of desegregation in American schools, and offers some insight into the future.
