29320, "Radical Equations: Math Literacy and Civil Rights" by Posted by MALACHI, Thu Apr-28-05 09:12 AM
Robert P. Moses with Charles Cobb...excellent book. I really got interested when I found out much of the book took place in Jackson, Mississippi where my mother is from, and specifically at Lanier high School, where many of my aunts and uncles went to high school.
Basically the book shows that education specifically in math and science is directly linked to economic empowerment, as well as a boatload of other things...
