In this episode of The Silk Stocking Sisters Podcast, we take a moment to pause, reflect, and revisit the insightful conversations that have shaped our journey so far. Inspired by the stories and research in my book, Silk Stocking Sisters: Desegregation in New York City Schools, this podcast was created to educate, inform, and spark dialogue around Americas complex racial history, particularly the often overlooked realities of school desegregation.

Throughout our episodes, we've explored pivotal topics such as Boston's school desegregation efforts, the critical role of teacher representation, the lasting impact of the Sheff v. O'Neill case, increasing diversity in suburban Cincinnati, the essential role of parental advocacy, and the debates surrounding school choice. The challenges and inequities of the past remain deeply relevant in our present, and our mission remains clear: to connect the past to the present in order to shape a more equitable future.

Looking ahead, we will continue to center equity in every conversation, highlighting the importance of access, representation, and resources in education and beyond. We aim to foster dialogue that inspires change and encourages understanding across racial and ethnic lines.
