Professor Orfield Quoted in New York Times about Minneapolis School Segregation
In a New York Times article entitled "In Minneapolis Schools, White Families Are Asked to Help Do the Integrating," Professor Myron Orfield spoke on the potential benefits of a plan designed to take a broader approach at integration through lessening the divide among school districts, including between cities and the suburbs.
“To really have a viable long-term plan, you need a metropolitan approach,” Orfield explained.
