Democrat and Chronicle education reporter Justin Murphy will discuss the findings in his new book, Your Children Are Very Greatly in Danger: School Segregation in Rochester, New York. Drawing on never-before-seen archival documents as well as scores of new interviews, Murphy shows how discriminatory public policy and personal prejudice combined to create the racially segregated education system that exists in the Rochester area today.
Justin Murphy covers education in the Rochester area, with an emphasis on the Rochester City School District.
