I'm Smart, Too The Chapel HillCarrboro City Schools gained notoriety in 2016 when news broke that the achievement gap between white and Black students was among the widest in the nation. In fact the disenfranchisement of Black children has been occurring ever since schools were formally integrated. While the district has pursued some initiatives to address racial inequities the stratified educational system still fails many students of color. Im Smart Too explores how the seeds of the disparities are cultivated in the early grades and the lasting impact of these experiences.
