The U.S. Supreme Court recently rejected two appeals regarding an unusual federal lawsuit that found both the Yonkers school board and the city of Yonkers guilty of unconstitutional racial discrimination in education and housing. This decision means that the federal court order that established mandatory student busing in Yonkers in 1986 remains in place, as well as an order to build public housing units in predominantly white neighborhoods in the city. It should be noted that the Supreme Court’s action does not create a binding precedent beyond the jurisdiction of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, which was responsible for the ruling in Yonkers Board of Education v. U.S. (Case No. 87-1632) and City of Yonkers v. U.S. (No. 87-1686).

However, according to David S. Tatel, an expert in education cases, many courts will interpret this decision as a signal to explore the connection between housing and education when it comes to desegregation. Advocates for desegregation have long argued that there is a cause-and-effect relationship between segregated housing patterns and racially imbalanced enrollment in schools. Federal courts have previously addressed this issue by implementing crosstown busing as a compromise to rectify inequities caused by segregated neighborhoods. Although attempts have been made in other lawsuits to link housing and school desegregation, none have gone as far as the Yonkers case.

Tatel’s law firm, Hogan and Hartson, is involved in two cases that aim to establish similar connections between the causes and solutions of racial segregation in education and housing. In St. Louis, a court order from five years ago requiring the development of housing policies to support school desegregation has not been implemented. Tatel also played a part in negotiating a court-approved settlement in which the state of Wisconsin agreed to assist with integrating residential neighborhoods in Milwaukee, although the state did not admit to practicing discriminatory housing practices.

The Yonkers case is significant because it fully addressed and resolved the issues surrounding the housing-education connection in federal courts. This sets a legal precedent that may be applicable in other cities within the Second Circuit, including those in Connecticut, New York, and Vermont. It is also one of only two school-desegregation cases that the Justice Department brought to trial during the Reagan Administration, which favored negotiating compromises in civil-rights cases. The other case, concerning the Charleston public schools in South Carolina, went to trial in October and is expected to conclude this summer.

The Justice Department filed the lawsuit against Yonkers in 1980, just before President Reagan took office. The Yonkers branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was later allowed to represent black plaintiffs in the case. After carefully considering the extensive and complex evidence presented by both sides, U.S. District Judge Leonard B. Sand issued a 600-page opinion in 1984, finding the city and school district accountable for unconstitutional segregation in housing and education. In 1986, the Yonkers school board implemented a school-desegregation plan, approved by Judge Sand, which incorporates voluntary and mandatory measures to ensure racial balance in the schools. The school board has separately sued the state of New York, alleging that state actions contributed to illegal segregation in the school system and seeking financial assistance to implement the plan. However, the city has resisted efforts to implement the housing component of the order.

The selection of locations in historically white neighborhoods for the construction of 200 low-income subsidized housing units, as mandated by Judge Sand’s order, has become contentious and was a significant issue in the municipal elections held last year.
