Book excerpt: While socioeconomic integration has been proven to work in some communities, it has failed to improve diversity and student achievement across the board. Ultimately, I've concluded that socioeconomic integration alone will not effectively close the achievement gap between minority students and their white counterparts, or successfully integrate public schools. Only a concerted effort by federal and local governments to improve early childhood education, coupled with more access to stable and affordable housing outside of urban centers, will provide the means to make education truly equal for all, while keeping Brown's promise alive for future generations.
