ED GORDON, host: The civil rights movement has lost another pioneer.  Psychologist and      educator Dr. Kenneth Clark died on Sunday in New York.  He was 90 years      old.  In the 1950s, Dr. Clark designed a test for black schoolchildren to      highlight the psychological damage of segregated education.  Clark's test      had a strong influence on the United States Supreme Court's landmark 1954      ruling that segregated schools were unconstitutional.  Clark advocated      steadily for total social integration.  He argued strongly against any      separation of black people from the concept of American culture as a      whole.</s>Dr. KENNETH CLARK (Psychologist, Educator): You could not have a group      of human beings, even in a subservient position, not being a part of that      culture, helping to contribute some sort of substance or highlighting the      conflicts and dilemma of that culture.  Blacks in America are part of      America.</s>ED GORDON, host: Clark devoted much of his life to improving education for all      children, and shortly before his death, he ran a consulting firm      committed to advancing race relations in America.
We remember the late Dr. Kenneth Clark, a psychologist and educator whose work during the 1950s helped dismantle segregated schools in the United States. Clark died on Sunday in New York. He was 90 years old.
