Description

Argues that without fundamental change in government and business policies and restoring political power and economic opportunities to inner-city residents and the redirection of major resources back into the schools and the communities they serve, urban schools are consigned to failure, and no effort at raising standards, improving teaching, or boosting achievement can occur.
