| Abstract: | Despite obligatory coverage of the Civil Rights Movement in every history textbook, I have yet to find a single K-12 textbook that mentions the boycott against segregated schools in which 464,361 students - about 45 percent of all NYC students at the time - stayed home from school. This led to a disconnect my student Morganne expressed succinctly: "Before I knew that people in New York City were a part of the Civil Rights Movement I couldn't see myself in the movement. Some students responded directly to the New York Times editorial, playing off the first line that blamed civil rights leaders for being "hellbent on staging a Negro and Puerto Rican boycott" despite the "new Board of Education plan for better integration." It's Not as Simple as Housing", "Watch: Roomful of Rich, White NYC Parents Get Big Mad at Plan to Diversify Neighborhood's Schools", and "NYC Has the Most Segregated Schools in the Country.
