A critical analysis of African Americans’ collective efforts to obtain educational equality before Brown v. Board of Education.
 
The landmark Brown v. Board of Education case, which barred racial segregation in American public schools, wasn’t the only path for Black parents, teachers, and activists who sought equality of educational opportunity. Some believed that the solution to inequality lay in pressing the federal government to live up to the Jim Crow doctrine of “separate but equal” by providing more resources to Black schools. And for a time, this seemed true in Washington, DC, where Black activists leveraged their status as residents of the nation’s capital to advocate on behalf of Black education. However, disappointments with the “separate but equal” strategy and a sea change in activism led to an embrace of integration.
 
In Nothing Less Than Equality, Tikia K. Hamilton reveals the rich and complex history of educational activism in Washington prior to Brown v. Board of Education, illuminating complex dynamics that provide a counterpoint and backdrop to the landmark Supreme Court case. Hamilton thoroughly examines the multipronged strategies employed by parents, teachers, attorneys, and activists to democratize education, demonstrating that there was no linear path to Brown. 

Arvustused

"In an extraordinary analysis of differing Black strategies for educational equality in Washington DC, Tikia Hamilton shines light on questions that continue to vex our unequal educational landscape. This pioneering work reveals the long afterlife of decades-old debates about equity, inclusion, and rights."



  -- Martha Biondi, Northwestern University "Hamiltons work is an act of remembrance and resistancea testament to love as method, to scholarship as devotion, and to the enduring power of Black educators who dared to believe in nothing less than equality. I know the labor of love this book represents. Nothing Less Than Equality is the culmination of years of refining, shaping, sharing, and loving a story into beinga story rooted in recognition and gratitude for those whose courage built the foundation of Black educational excellence. As Hamilton reminds us, the fight for educational equality demands approaches that are as radical and multilayered as those who came before us. This book teaches, inspires, and insists that the past has something vital to teach us still: that where injustice exists, citizens must demand what is theirs by right of birth as human beings." -- Noliwe Rooks, Brown University
