Schools in Transition.
TL;DR: The geography of schools in Mississippi has undergone four phases of change during the past three decades, and there are indications that a fifth phase is in the offing as discussed by the authors, which is likely to be a return to some form of dual school system, prompted by a movement of white people to private schools and other bold reactions.
