The book accomplishes two important things: It demonstrates - using rigorous social scientific analysis - that racial segregation is the root cause of the continuing social disadvantage of African Americans.And it argues persuasively - using subtle philosophical reasoning - that in light of American history, a concerted effort to integrate our schools, neighbourhoods,and workplaces is the only path forward consistent with a commitment to social justice.
