At 12 minutes and 55 seconds into the interview Ms. Sheff is shown a picture of Ms. Russell Rue picketing &#8220;de facto&#8221; segregation at Noah Webster School in 1965. This picture of civil rights protestors appropriately gives\u00a0 evidence to the civil rights movement in CT during the 1960s.\u00a0 Ms. Sheff, prompted by the photo goes on to explain her own feelings about the term &#8220;de facto&#8221; in an articulate way that resonates with the sentiments expressed in the term &#8220;de jure&#8221; or &#8220;of law&#8221;, not of fact.<\/p>\n<p>Elizabeth Sheff explains how the district lines of towns that keep races separate also kept the schools segregated. Sheff explains that the district lines were done intentionally and as a result could not cause &#8220;de facto&#8221; segregation if the district lines were drawn intentionally. In Susan Eaton&#8217;s book <em>The Children of Room E4<\/em> it is explained that &#8220;De jure, &#8220;of law, &#8221; refers to racial separation enforced by laws or statues&#8221; (77). What is so interesting to me about this interview is that Sheff was aware of the reality with out the legal terms to express this reality, it makes the sentiment more true. She could not hide within fancy vernacular, but simply told it how she saw it. Raw, and candid. In her own words she is &#8220;very articulate&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s a different video Elizabeth Horton Sheff, July 28, 2011 from Trinity College on Vimeo.
