Overview
- Compares the experiences of women of color who accessed a public school district through three distinct means: as residents, commuters, and boarders
- Overtly examines both the costs and benefits associated with the experience for women, as well as the contributions that they make to the school district, the community in which the school is located, and to their home communities
- Explicitly focuses on women of color, resulting in a more complete analysis of the intersectionality of race and gender
