Comparing Remedies For School Desegregation And Employment Discrimination: Can Employees Now Help Schools?, Candace Saari Kovacic-Fleishcer

Part II theorizes that Brown might, in hindsight, have been more successfully implemented and demonstrates why what might have been done earlier probably would not work today.
