Описание к видео Academic gap: Why Black students lag behind in schools and what's being done to fix it

New York has one of the most segregated public school systems in the country.

A disparities report commissioned by New York City’s Young Men’s Initiative found the high school graduation rate for Black male teens is 70% that of white male teens. For every 1,000 black males who graduate from high school, only 156 are ready for college or a career.

PIX11 looks at the cause behind this academic gap and what's being done to reverse it in this week's 'Created Equal.'
