“…The clear consciousness of a communal life, in all its implications, constitutes the idea of democracy. 27 On Dewey's definition of community, it is not necessary for people to value others as highly as they value themselves; no radical egalitarianism lurks here. Obviously, communities will fall apart if too many people feel that excessive sacrifice is demanded of them.…”

“…It required a long series of federal decisions stretching well into the 1970s to close off the more transparent routes funneling public money to segregated private schools in the name of "school choice." 27 To this day hundreds of private schools in the South, most operated by religious denominations, make freedom of choice a reality for white families that can afford them. 28 Proponents of education's privatization must struggle with this distressingly resilient feature of contemporary American society.…”

“…Academic leaders have been driven by the rise of historically and politically marginalized voices to address the subordinating policies and ideologies that inform race and racism, culturally and structurally, beyond the individual person (Gillborn, 2009;Ladson-Billings, 1998). Scholars from the fields of legal scholarship and education have questioned the extent to which Brown v. Board of Education and the plethora of additional landmark cases ensuing really addressed equity and inclusion for minoritized and excluded ethnic and non-white groups following the civil rights movement (Crenshaw, Gotanda, Peller, & Thomas, 1995;Gillborn, 2009;Kennedy, 1989;Ladson-Billings, 1998;Lynn & Parker, 2006;Russo, Harris III, & Sandridge, 1994). Such cases that focused on eliminating racial segregation in the school system include Mendez v. Westminster in 1946 (Wollenberg, 1974), Goss v. Board of Education in 1963 (Caldas, Growe, & Bankston, 2002), Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka in1954 (Russo et al, 1994) and Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education in 1971 (Bell, 1995), to name a few.…”

However, these cases differ geopolitically and ideologically in how they were resolved with respect to cases involving the exclusion of African Americans when compared to Latin@s (i.e., Mexican Americans).…”
