The South Shall Ruin Itself Again

So, apparently there are still places where segregation of schools is still an issue.

Places like Walthall County, Mississippi.

Apparently the county school board still allowed for white students to transfer from Tylertown schools to a predominantly white system 10 miles away, leaving the close-at-home schools to the African population.

Reading that, you would expect this to be a post sent from the 1950's, but believe you me, almost 60 years after Brown vs Board of Education there are still school systems that see nothing wrong with this. And yes, this is taking place in the South.

And people really still wonder why racial tension still exists?
