I’ve had this queued up for a couple weeks now.  I’m particularly interested because our boys will be starting a new school in a few weeks and they will be a minority for the first time in their life. Looking forward to listening this weekend!

UPDATE — September 2, 2015

This piece covers a lot of my thoughts on the podcast.  I’m also in a great email conversation with a friend about it.   The thing that keeps rattling around in my brain is this: Why is there so much talk about “bringing” the Black kids to the better-performing (AKA White) schools and NONE on doing the opposite.   If White folks really care, shouldn’t they be willing to bring/bus/commute their kids to the Black schools?
