1st printing of 1st edition. An examination of the struggle to desegregate the schools of Charlotte, North Carolina, from the Brown v. Board of Education ruling in 1954 to the mid-1970s. Interestingly, Charlotte responded more quickly to Brown than most Southern cities. In addition, Charlotte emerged as the focal point in the national debate on school busing. The net result was that desegregation in Charlotte was widely regarded as more successful than most efforts in other cities. Fine trade hard cover book/ no dust jacket, as issued.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Illustrated. A history of various efforts to desegregate northern schools during the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century, exploring two dominant themes. The first considers the role of law in accomplishing racial change. Most northern state legislatures enacted legislation after the Civil War that prohibited school segregation and most northern courts, when called upon, enforced that legislation. Notwithstanding this clear legal opposition to school segregation, racially separate schools flourished in much of the north until the late 1940s and early 1950s. The second theme is the ambivalence in the northern black community over the importance of school integration. Since the antebellum era, northern blacks have sharply divided over the question of whether black children would fare better in separate black schools or in racially integrated ones. These competing visions of black empowerment in the northern black community as reflected in the debate over school integration are addressed here.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The United States Supreme Court's 2002-03 term confounded Court watchers. The same Rhenquist Court that many had seen as solidly conservative and unduly activist - the Court that had decided the 2000 presidential election and struck down 31 federal statutes since 1995 - issued a set of surprising, watershed rulings. In a term filled with important and unpredictable decisions, it upheld affirmative action, invalidated a same-sex sodomy statute, and reversed a death sentence due to ineffective assistance of counsel. With essays focused on individual Justices, Court practices, and some of last year's most important rulings, this volume explores the meaning and significance of the Court's 2002-03 term. Seasoned Supreme Court advocates and journalists from The New York Times, The New Republic, The Los Angeles Times, the National Journal, Slate, Legal Times, and Newsweek grapple with questions about the Rehnquist Court's identity and the Supreme Court's role in the political life of the country. Some essays consider the role of "swing" Justices Sandra Day O'Connor and Anthony Kennedy within a Court that divides 5-4 more than any other group of Justices in the nation's history.Others examine the political reaction to and legal context of the Court's Lawrence v. Texas decision declaring a Texas law criminalizing homosexual sodomy unconstitutional. Contributors analyze the Court's rulings on affirmative action and reassess its commitment to states' rights. Considering the Court's practices, one essayist explores the use and utility of amicus curae, or "friend of the court" briefs, while another reflects on indications of an increased openness by the Court to public scrutiny. Two advocates who argued cases before the Court last year - one related to hate speech and the other to a "three strikes and you're out" criminal statute - offer vivid accounts of their experiences. Intended for general readers, A Year at the Supreme Court is for all those who want to understand the Rehnquist Court and its momentous 2002-03 term. Profiles a watershed year (2002-2003) in the life of the U.S. Supreme Court, with contributions by journalists and Court advocates that discuss critical rulings on gay rights, affirmative action, hate speech, federal-state relations, and criminal law.
