Race, class, and power clash at the heart of American schooling.

A new series from Code Switch explores the bigotry still at work in schools.

LA Johnson/NPR Race, class, and power have always been at war in the hearts of American cities and schools. This summer, School Colors, the new series from Code Switch at NPR, gets you to the frontlines. We head to Queens, New York City - the most diverse county in the United States, and a hotbed for the complex issue - to explore districting, zoning, and almost a century of push and pull between bigotry, tolerance, aspirations, and disappointment. More importantly, we explore what - if anything - is being done today. With hosts Mark Winston Griffith and Max Freedman, alongside NPR’s Soraya Shockley and Carly Rubin, you’ll hear School Colors right in your Code Switch show feed. Catch the series wherever you get your podcasts. Listen Now Facebook Twitter You received this message because you're subscribed to Best of NPR emails.
