4/20/23 Lecture: Your Children Are Very Greatly in Danger
Presented by Justin Murphy, Author and Democrat & Chronical Education Reporter
Justin Murphy makes the compelling argument that the educational disparities in Rochester are the result of historical and present-day racial segregation. Education reform alone will never be the full solution; to resolve racial inequity, cities such as Rochester must first dismantle segregation. Referencing never-before-seen archival documents and scores of new interviews, Murphy discusses how discriminatory public policy and personal prejudice combined to create the racially segregated education system that exists in the Rochester area today.
