Nikole Hannah-Jones' Essay Didn't Explain The History of "School Choice", So I Have To
In light of the long, highly individualistic New York Times Magazine essay (https://www.nytimes.com/2026/09/20/magazine/ny-public-schools-black-students-segregation.html?unlocked_article_code=1.ClE.x4Td.hZVm5jdGgqIk&smid=nytcore-ios-share) by Nicole Hannah-Jones about her regret over putting her child in public elementary and middle schools, the real history behind what we call "school choice" today was not explained.
If it had been, the essay wouldn't have focused on the impact on just her daughter, or the silly idea of changing the entire foundationally unjust education system from the inside, one child at a time.
So let's talk about the history that explains what the author of The 1619 Project oddly did not, but certainly should have, if she weren't making this centuries-long, continued, and intentional injustice all about her choices and the impacts on her child alone.
Either we are going to fight for ALL our children to be treated equally and live free, or we're going to continue pretending to be rugged individualistic capitalists with none of the actual power to change anything about our exploitative conditions.
