How far have we come in Minneapolis in the past 50 years?
Any School Board candidates out there care to comment on this?
People segregate themselves and that's the problem, but no amount of busing will solve this. Sayles Belton had a good idea when she dropped the whole super-bus program and brought back neighborhood schools. Now if they could only be equally funded and have access to the same programs and amenities [ -Drive around and compare the Mpls. High schools- which ones look the best and have the best facilities? You'll see a pattern emerge pretty quickly-]
MONEY is the great equalizer, not school buses.

[Not quite responding to your comment, just throwing that out there. I'll have time for a more thorough response later.]
