Description
By examining the quieter collisions between Iowa's polite midwestern progressivism and African American students' determined ambition, this volume focuses attention on both local stories and their national implications. This collection reveals how interracial collaboration, meritocratic advancement, and institutional insensitivity deepen our understanding of America's painful conversion into a republic committed to racial equality.
