"It is true that there are many great schools in this country that offer every possible opportunity to learn in empowering and engaging ways. And more of them are open to a wider range of children than was once the case. This leads many to assume that inequality has been eliminated from the national landscape. And precisely because the segregation that currently cordons off poor communities of color from the rest of society, most policymakers, reporters, and editorial writers don’t live with or know about how the “other half” experiences school."
— Linda Darling-Hammond, The Flat World and Education
