Race at the Top

"The American suburb conjures an image of picturesque privilege: manicured lawns, quiet streets, and, most important to parents, high-quality schools. These elite enclaves are also historically white, allowing many white Americans to safeguard their privileges by using public schools to help their children enter top colleges. That's changing, however, as Asian American professionals increasingly move into wealthy suburban areas to give their kids that same leg up for their college applications and future careers."--
