Revisiting Not In My Suburbs: Milliken v Bradley @46

<p>July 25th will mark the 46th anniversary of the SCOTUS ruling on the <a href="https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/418/717/#tab-opinion-1950931">Milliken v. Bradley</a> case. Today, we revisit our episode from a year ago about this important and under-appreciated case.  Joined by <a href="https://cardozo.yu.edu/directory/michelle-adams">Michelle Adams</a>, Constitutional Law Professor at <a href="https://cardozo.yu.edu">Cardozo School of Law</a>, who is writing <i>Soul Force: Detroit, The Supreme Court, and the Epic Battle for Racial Justice in America, </i>we discuss the case and its implications for today.</p><p>Based in Detroit, the Milliken decision functionally halted the promise of Brown v Board of Education at the city limits, allowing all-white suburbs (created through policies like redlining) to maintain all-white schools. The implications for ideas about what is possible regarding desegregation today, and how we fund schools are profound.  </p><p><strong>LINKS: </strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.oyez.org/cases/2006/05-908">Parents Involved v Seattle Schools</a></li><li><a href="https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/418/717/#tab-opinion-1950931">Milliken v Bradley</a></li><li><a href="https://www.oyez.org/cases/1972/71-507">Keyes v Denver School District 1</a></li><li><a href="https://www.oyez.org/cases/1970/281">Swann v Mecklenburg </a></li><li><a href="https://www.oyez.org/cases/1940-1955/347us483">Brown v Board of Ed</a></li><li>EdBuild <a href="https://edbuild.org/content/23-billion">report</a> on the $23 Billon funding gap</li><li>Complete <a href="https://apps.oyez.org/player/#/burger4/opinion_announcement_audio/17265">audio</a> from the opinion, including the entirety of Justice Marshall's dissent.</li></ul><p><a href="http://patreon.com/integratedschools">Join our Patreon</a> to support this work, and connect with us and other listeners to discuss these issues even further.
