Adamss book explores class as well as race, with a richness and sophistication that recall J. Anthony Lukass 1985 masterpiece, Common Ground. Jeffrey Toobin, The New York Times Book ReviewPassionate and well researched. Louis Menand, The New YorkerThe epic story of Detroits struggle to integrate schools in its suburbsand the defeat of desegregation in the North.In 1974, the Supreme Court issued a momentous decision: In the case of Milliken v. Bradley, the justices brought a halt to school desegregation across the North, and to the civil rights movements struggle for a truly equal education for all. How did this come about, and why?In The Containment, the esteemed legal scholar Michelle Adams tells the epic story of the struggle to integrate Detroit schoolsand what happened when it collided with Nixon-appointed justices committed to a judicial counterrevolution. Adams chronicles the devoted activists who tried to uplift Detroits students amid the upheavals of riots, Black power, and white flightand how their efforts led to federal judge Stephen Roths landmark order to achieve racial balance by tearing down the walls separating the city and its suburbs. The metropolitan remedy could have remade the landscape of racial justice. Instead, the Supreme Court ruled that the suburbs could not be a part of the effort to integrateand thus upheld the inequalities that remain in place today.Adams tells this story via compelling portraits of a city under stress and of key figuresincluding Detroits first Black mayor, Coleman Young, and Justices Marshall, Rehnquist, and Powell. The result is a legal and historical drama that exposes the roots of todays backlash against affirmative action and other efforts to fulfill the countrys promise....4658909The Containment362503https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-containment-9780374721787/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4470073/image.jpg?v=638690422248500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259780374721787_W3siaWQiOiIyOTkzMjE5Ni05ZWU5LTRkNWYtYWE5Yi0zYWUwYjBjOTVmZmIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ5MCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjEzNywic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjozNTMsImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI1LTAxLTE0VDAwOjAwOjAwWiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9XQ==9780374721787_The epic story of Detroits struggle to integrate schools in its suburbsand the defeat of desegregation in the North.In 1974, the Supreme Court issued a momentous decision: In the case of Milliken v.
