This study includes historic context essays on racial desegregation in public education as it applied to African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans. Registration guidelines for evaluating potential NHLs and an inventory of properties identified as nationally significant in these contexts are included. This document was prepared by the NPS in cooperation with the National Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers and the Organization of American Historians. The 2004 supplement (16 pages) provides additional information on places associated with the long struggle to desegregate schools.
