This conclusion reviews the failed policy alternatives to desegregation, arguing that issues of segregation and racial inequality have not gone away and no workable alternative to desegregation has been found. It also argues that this book features important voices, those of scholars who believe the policies are fundamentally mistaken, that resegregated schools are failing, and that there are alternatives that educators, policy makers, AND advocates must consider.
Keywords: policy alternatives, desegregation, segregation, racial inequality, resegregated schools
