Summary:	"Jim Crow's pink slip exposes the decades-long repercussions of the too-little-known result of resistance to the Brown v. Board of Education decision: the systematic dismissal of Black educators from public schools. The Supreme Court's landmark 1954 Brown decision ended segregated schooling in the United States, but regrettably, it also ended the careers of a generation of highly qualified and credentialed Black teachers and principals. In the Deep South and northern border states over the decades following Brown, Black schools closed and Black educators were uniformly displaced. By engaging with the complicated legacy of the Brown decision, Leslie T. Fenwick sheds light on a crucial chapter in education history. She also offers policy prescriptions aimed at correcting the course of US education, supporting educators, and improving workforce quality and diversity." -- Back cover.
