Why can't we make school funding equitable?

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

In a perfect world, every school would have all the money it needs, but that is clearly not the case now. In her new book, "Designed to Fail: Why Racial Equity in School Funding Is So Hard to Achieve", Dr. Roseann Liu, visiting assistant professor at Swarthmore College, digs into school funding and why it is almost always children of color that get shortchanged. We talked with Dr. Liu about the book, which focuses on Pennsylvania, and why it seems like we just can’t get this right.
