673 Annals Am. Acad. Pol. & Soc. Sci. 6 (2017)

handle is hein.cow/anamacp0673 and id is 1 raw text is: Introduction By ELIJAH ANDERSON and LUKE ANDERSON Keywords: Coleman Report; urban education; inner- city schools; inequality; poverty This volume is based on the April 2016 Yale symposium on the Inner City School: Inequality and Urban Education. The sympo- sium brought together a wide range of attend- ees, including researchers, teachers, principals, and students. The scholars presented their research, while the practitioners presented compelling accounts of their direct experiences in school settings. As organizers, we invited scholars from France to offer a comparative perspective, since schools around major European cities face similar challenges from structural forces as do those in the United States. The presenters shared their particular perspectives, while focusing on practices that they found to be effective in counteracting, or at least mitigating, the impact of critical sys- temic societal and institutional issues affecting students' learning. What emerged from the Elyjah Anderson is the William K. Lanman Jr Professor of Sociology at Yale University. His publications include Code of the Street (W W Norton 1999), Streetwise (University of Chicago Press 1990), A Place on the Corner (University of Chicago Press 1978), and The Cosmopolitan Canopy (W W Norton 2012). He has also edited several volumes that feature the work of urban ethnographers. Luke Anderson teaches seventh- and eighth-grade humanities at the Gordon School in East Providence, RI. Previously he taught ninth-grade English at Blackstone Academy Charter School in Pawtucket, RI; spent five years as an English teacher and department chair at North Lawndale College Prep High School in Chicago; and oversaw NFTE programs in forty-six Chicago schools.
