How America abandoned the only policy that consistently closes the black-white educational gap

My experience in Texas was that, for whatever reason, White/Tejano/Hispanic forced-integrations tended to have fewer problems than white/black. In my limited experience, the economic and cultural gaps were smaller

I am glad you had a good experience.

As I said upthread, “this is a big, complicated problem, so it’s unlikely to have a single, simple solution.”

Thanks for sharing.

BTW: were you Bussed? because it sounds like you went to a “neighborhood” school with a diverse study population, rather a school in “non-diverse” neighborhood" which forced intra-classroom diversity by bussing in some kids from far way.
