How American Education Can Better Serve Black Students

Brian Rashad Fuller is an educator and associate provost at The New School who believes that education in America needs reform to better serve its black students. That is based on his experience as a child growing in South Carolina public schools, and as an administrator in public school systems. As the school year begins this week, Fuller discusses his ideas for reforming our education system for black students, detailed in his new book, Being Black in America's Schools: A Student-Educator-Reformer's Call for Change .
