Education Next In 1967, Jonathan Kozols Death at an Early Age shook the education world, exposing the abuse and neglect of Black children in Bostons public schools in a National Book Awardwinning volume. Now, after more than fifty years spent visiting struggling, unequal schools, the author that Entertainment Weekly calls a classic American muckraker with an eloquent prose style has given us a book that Bob Peterson of Rethinking Schools deems Kozol at his best. Available for the first time in an accessible paperback format, this powerful and provocative cutting-edge analysis (Ivn Espinoza-Madrigal, executive director, Lawyers for Civil Rights) highlights the ongoing racial isolation in Americas public schools, compounded by rigid, punitive teaching methods. From the award-winning educator who WBUR radio says has spent his life devoted to exposing the harms of segregation and telling the stories of those most impacted by inequality, An End to Inequality is called jolting by Ralph Nader, and Charlayne Hunter-Gault says Kozols voice remains fresh as ever.
