Section Five of the Voting Rights Act and Its Effects upon Southern School Boards.
Foster, Lorn S.
Negro Educational Review, v35 n1 p25-34 Jan 1984
Examined differences in amount of Black representation on Southern school boards when one or more objections to electoral district changes have been filed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) under Section Five of the Voting Rights Act. Found that demographic and social data do not explain DOJ objections filed against the boards. (CJM)
