School, the story of American public education

Episode 3 : A struggle for educational equality, 1950-1980

  • 9 Want to read

Describes how in the 1950's, America's public schools teemed with the promise of a new, postwar generation of students, over half of whom would go on to college. This program shows how impressive gains masked profound inequalities: seventeen states had segregated schools; 1% of all Ph. D.'s went to women; and "separate but equal" was still the law of the land.
