Disillusioned is a book that explores the intersection of hope, history, and racial denial in American suburbs and their schools. The book tells the stories of five families, including a middle-class Black family in Atlanta, a conservative white family in Dallas, a multiracial mom in Chicago's North Shore, an undocumented Hispanic parent in Compton, and a Black mother in Pittsburgh. It reveals a vicious cycle undermining the dreams of American suburbia, where white families have extracted opportunity from subsidized suburbs and moved on before maintenance and repair costs are due.
