by Amy Stuart Wells, Jacquelyn Duran & Terrenda WhiteIn light of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on two racial integration cases from Louisville, Kentucky, and Seattle, Washington, the authors explore the mismatch between the rationale of the Court’s majority in declaring these desegregation plans unconstitutional and the social science research on the long-term effects of such plans on the adults who had desegregated school experiences as children. They conclude that two powerful and intertwined themes found in both new and existing research – that racial discrimination and its legacies still exist in the form of “structural inequality” and the “diversity rationale” for bringing children of different backgrounds together to learn – both support the efforts of the two school districts in these cases. post a comment by Randy Bomer, Joel E. Dworin, Laura May & Peggy SemingsonThis article critiques the content of a popular professional development program for educators developed by Ruby Payne that focuses on children and families living in poverty. We found Payne’s claims about poverty to be without support by comparing them to existing research from anthropology, sociology, and other areas. comments (15)

by William F. Tate IV & Catherine StrileyWe will argue in this commentary that epidemiology and education research as fields should engage in greater dialogue about pressing matters involving social disparities. Two questions will frame this commentary. What is epidemiology? How might this field inform our understanding of educational disparities?
