Summary
"Though many see religion and race as separate public school issues, Ribovich reframes religion's role in twentieth-century American public education by using New York City as a window into how religion undergirded school policies and practices on race before and after school prayer and Bible-reading became unconstitutional"-- Provided by publisher.
