The Shame of the Nation

The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America

Jonathan Kozol

This book exposes the shocking reality of segregation in inner-city schools and the use of prison-like behavioral control methods on students. With a focus on high-stakes testing at the expense of liberal education, the author calls for a return to humane and culturally rich instruction. Including the voices of students, teachers, and community leaders, this book challenges us to fulfill the promise made to our youngest citizens decades ago.
