The schoolhouse gate : public education, the Supreme Court, and the battle for the American mind
Justin Driver (Author)
From racial segregation to unauthorized immigration, from economic inequality to public prayer and homeschooling, the Supreme Court has addressed many divisive issues concerning our educational system. Driver provides a fresh account of the historic legal battles, and argues that since the 1970s the Supreme Court has transformed public schools into Constitution-free zones. He highlights the personal narratives behind landmark clashes, and shows how the decisions have threatened our basic constitutional order
