The Texas legislature is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.houstonchronicle.com\/politics\/texas\/article\/Texas-Democrats-say-GOP-bill-blocking-future-mask-16398646.php\">considering legislation<\/a>\u00a0that would make public mask requirements illegal.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>A history of resistance<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Southern states ignoring federal educational guidance is not new.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, rather than integrate schools, Virginia\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.odu.edu\/library\/special-collections\/dove\/timeline\">elected to close many school districts<\/a>\u00a0and instead offer white students vouchers to attend private schools. The state legislature enabled this in 1956, when it\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vqronline.org\/essay\/massive-resistance-virginia%E2%80%99s-great-leap-backward\">passed laws that stripped local school boards<\/a>\u00a0of their power and put it in the hands of committees appointed by the governor.<\/p>\n<p>When Lindsey Almond took over as governor of Virginia in 1957, he warned that integrated schools would lead to the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.commentary.org\/articles\/erwin-knoll\/desegregations-tortuous-course-washington-showcase-of-integration\/\">livid stench of sadism, sex, immorality, and juvenile pregnancy<\/a>\u201d that he claimed existed in nearby Washington\u2019s integrated school system.<\/p>\n<h4>Other acts of resistance<\/h4>\n<p>In Mississippi, things were little different than in Virginia.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jstor.org\/stable\/40578897\">Gov. Hugh White<\/a>\u00a0thought that he might avoid integration by convincing Black residents to voluntarily agree to continue segregation. He promised more money for schools. He met with 90 Black leaders and asked for voluntary segregation. The plan failed when only one person at the meeting agreed to the proposal. As a result, the governor called a special session of the state legislature.<\/p>\n<p>The legislature\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonfreepress.com\/news\/2004\/may\/12\/black-monday\/\">passed a bill that led to the closure of public schools in the state<\/a>.

The U.S. Constitution creates a federal system where the national government shares power with states. Any power not explicitly listed in the Constitution is left to the states,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/constitution\/tenth_amendment\">per the 10th Amendment<\/a>. As a result, educational policy is largely left to the states, so long as civil rights are protected.<\/p>\n<p>Within states, power is shared with local governments in whatever way state constitutions and law decide. Florida Gov. DeSantis has\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tallahassee.com\/story\/news\/local\/state\/2021\/08\/09\/florida-gov-desantis-threatens-salaries-school-superintendents-school-board-members-mask-mandates\/5544903001\/\">threatened retaliation against schools who defy his order<\/a>\u00a0by cutting superintendent salaries. Yet, a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/lifestyle-health-education-florida-coronavirus-pandemic-1908088a0b5c5b02d89fd7e007822408\">state judge stopped<\/a>\u00a0his order.

Threatening localities with retaliation did not prevent the eventual integration of schools in the South. Considering that local school districts are following federal health guidance, threats from governors to browbeat localities into submission have stirred\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/science\/article\/as-kids-head-back-to-school-battles-over-masks-are-pitting-parents-against-governors\">community outrage<\/a>\u00a0from parents and lawsuits from concerned citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, federalism makes power-sharing between the states and federal government complicated. The Constitution gives states the power to create their own educational and health policies, but the federal government can enforce civil rights laws in schools, making educational policy political whether people like it or not.<\/p>\n<p>This is why, on Aug. 30, 2021, the U.S. Department of Education announced\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ed.gov\/news\/press-releases\/department-educations-office-civil-rights-opens-investigations-five-states-regarding-prohibitions-universal-indoor-masking\">that it would investigate<\/a>\u00a0whether statewide mask bans deny civil rights to students with disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Like school integration in the past, policies that require or encourage masks have become the new arena for the ongoing American argument about Southern states\u2019 rights.<\/p>\n<p><em>A<strong>uthor Bio:<\/strong> Dustin Hornbeck is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow of Educational Leadership and Policy at the University of Texas Arlington<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When the U.S. Supreme Court issued its 1954\u00a0Brown vs. Board of Education decision\u00a0that struck down segregated public schooling, white Southern politicians responded to the decision with ferocity.
