This Daytime Emmy Award winning documentary tells the story of the children who lived the history behind the landmark desegregation case of Taylor vs. Board of Education of New Rochelle, NY - 1961. This case branded the city the “Little Rock of the North” in the press from California to Canada. It became a pivotal case that brought the Civil Rights struggle to the “tolerant” North East. With the best of intentions, Black parents sent their small children into white schools. Leveling Lincoln explores the intended and unintended consequences of this seminal case.
