Description
A lawsuit filed in New Jersey is looking to hold the state liable for its deeply segregated schools. Meanwhile, students of color face another challenge — they often don't see their own backgrounds reflected among the teachers responsible for educating them. WNYC’s Michael Hill talked with Catherine Carrera, bureau chief at Chalkbeat Newark, and Montclair Local Nonprofit News reporter Talia Wiener. And finally, Beyonce’s Renaissance tour lands at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium this weekend and that’s already having an effect on more than just ticket sales.
