&"This is an excellent collection of essays dealing with the impact of the Supreme Court&'s historic 1954 opinion in Brown v. Board of Education. It is a must-read for anyone trying to understand the implications of the Brown decision for American society.&" &-Kevin D. Brown, Maurer School of Law, Indiana University, &"This collection of essays provides an interesting lens through which to examine Brown and its legacy, namely, the local situation in Delaware, particularly New Castle County and Wilmington. . . . Its unique local perspective offers an important lens for better understanding the national issues.&" &-Paul R. Dimond, author of Beyond Busing (2005), "In clear words, thorough research, and powerful arguments, Hayman and Ware-through their own voices and those of contributors, some of whom were the titans for justice-retell the road to Brown v. Board of Education . They do so through a deep exploration of Delaware's untold story. Choosing Equality thus lays bare a northern state's part in a personal, legal conversation for human dignity. Brown 's integration principle did not end this conversation. It continues today in the founding of charter schools and in Parents Involved in Community Schools . A truly important book, Choosing Equality is a must-read." -Reginald Leamon Robinson, Howard University School of Law, "In clear words, thorough research, and powerful arguments, Hayman and Ware--through their own voices and those of contributors, some of whom were the titans for justice--retell the road to Brown v.
