ABSTRACT The recent calls to desegregate New York City's public schools reify the fact that equity, social justice, and access to meaningful schooling continue to be a significant problem for Black and Hispanic children and their families, especially those who reside in urban communities. In this historiography I utilise a Black feminist perspective to explore how Harlem's mothers desegregated NYC's public schools after the landmark school desegregation ruling. The mothers’ advocacy and efforts embodied the concept of motherwork, an attribute that is often unrecognised by school leaders. Implications are offered to urge urban school leaders to reimagine best practices and the function of parent involvement and community engagement in their respective school-communities.

哈林区的“母本”后布朗：对城市学校领导的影响

摘要 最近取消纽约市公立学校种族隔离的呼吁体现了这样一个事实，即公平、社会正义和获得有意义的学校教育的机会仍然是黑人和西班牙裔儿童及其家庭的一个重大问题，尤其是那些居住在城市社区的人。在这本历史编纂中，我利用黑人女权主义的视角来探讨在具有里程碑意义的学校废除种族隔离裁决之后，哈莱姆区的母亲如何废除纽约市公立学校的种族隔离。母亲们的倡导和努力体现了母性工作的概念，这是学校领导经常无法识别的属性。建议敦促城市学校领导重新构想最佳实践以及家长参与和社区参与在各自学校社区中的作用。
