N.C. trying to re-segregate schools?


“The North Carolina legislature has passed a controversial measure permitting four towns with mostly white populations to create their own charter schools, a move that critics say is intended to promote segregation.

The North Carolina chapter of the NAACP is threatening to sue the state over the law and over a proposed constitutional amendment requiring identification cards at the polls.”

Why does this legislation only invovlve 4 schools with mostly white populations.

  1. If indeed the idea is for re-segregation, some sympathy is justified. White kids don't initiate the daily violence of which we regularly read.
