Obscuring Whiteness with Liberalism
Obscuring Whiteness with Liberalism
Winners and Losers in Federal School Reform
Chapter Five examines current federal efforts to “turnaround the nation’s worst schools” through targeted School Improvement Grants. With a foundation in individualism and classical liberalism, this school-reform model results in the loss of students, teachers, and actual schools. The resulting neoliberal transformation exacerbates inequity and reifies whiteness.
