This text takes a detailed look into this controversial but topical subject in all realms of education. Wise compares the magnitude of white racial preference with the policies typically envisioned when the term “racial preference” is used, and he demonstrates that the U.S. system of education is both a reflection of and a contributor to a structure of institutionalized racism.
