Unfinished Business: Closing the Racial Achievement Gap in Our Schools (Jossey-Bass Education)
"Pedro A. Noguera and Jean Yonemura Wing (2006) in their edited volume,Unfinished Business: Closing the Racial Achievement Gap in Our Schools, address this ongoing problem of what it will take to fulfill the promise of education reform and educate all students to high levels -- using the Berkeley High School Diversity Project as a case study.... The editors focus on the possibilities for achieving these lofty goals through public education, arguably our nation's most equitable and democratic institution." (Teachers College Record,October 2006)"Unfinished Businesswas written because of the belief that public education is vital for a healthy democracy and that schools can play a decisive role in making our nation less divided and fractured on the basis of race, class, culture, gender, and language."
