Introduction
As we approach the 70th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education and 50th anniversary of Milliken v. Bradley, what progress has been made, where have we fallen short or gotten stuck, and what is required to truly fulfill the promise of integration and educational equity? This P&R special issue brings together a variety of perspectives––lawyers, researchers, advocates, educators, parents, and students––to reflect on both the fulfilled and unfulfilled promise of Brown and offer ideas to help chart a path forward for making truly equitable and integrated schools a reality. Each piece explores a little-known or underemphasized aspect of Brown or Milliken, ultimately providing insights and guidance about how to strengthen the modern movement for school integration.
