Praise

Praise for Brian Fuller

“Brian Fuller is writing at the crossroads of the most crucial social issues confronting us right now. His vantage point is as uncommon as it is valuable. This is a book we need yesterday.” —Jelani Cobb, staff writer at The New Yorker, Dean of Columbia Journalism School

“Educational equity is a civil right for all Americans regardless of identity, political affiliation, economic status, or any other difference. Through Brian’s professional expertise and emotional story, I believe he will touch all who read his book—forging a path to improve public education for America’s children.” —Jane Swift, Former Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and President, Education at Work

“Brian Fuller brings an extraordinary perspective to race and education in America. With strikingly vivid recollections of growing up and attending public schools in Strom Thurmond’s South Carolina, he can share through a child’s as well as an expert’s eyes how racism permeates education and the toll it exacts even on those like Brian who succeed in spite of it . . . Brian offers a searing critique of the American way of educating Black children and a vision of how to improve education for all.” —Dale Russakoff, Author of The Prize: Who’s in Charge of America’s Schools

“Having navigated our nation’s schools as a Black male student, and through his diverse professional experiences across our educational system, Brian has gained a unique perspective that educators, system-level leaders, and policy-makers need to hear. Brian reaches deep beneath the data story about Black student achievement that we have heard all too often. With gripping narrative style and keen analytical insights, he lays bare the deep structural inequities that undergird our system at all levels.” —Marina Cofield, CEO, East Harlem Tutorial Program & East Harlem Scholars Academies; Former Senior Executive Director, NYC Department of Education
