This is what the Supreme Court ordered, what Juan Williams championed . Congratulations, guys. Also

The South and West – and rural areas and small towns generally – offer minority students a bit more diversity.

I find it significant that "diversity" is now for minorities. You've got to reverse-engineer the meaning of that from the way it's used to see the conceptual problem here.

I also find it interesting that the report under discussion in the article is never identified. 

Resegregation of U.S. schools deepening
Districts in big cities of the Midwest and Northeast undergo the most change.

At one time, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School District in North Carolina was a model of court-ordered integration.

Today, nearly a decade after a court struck down its racial-balancing busing program, the school district is moving in the opposite direction. More than half of its elementary schools are either more than 90 percent black or 90 percent white.

"Charlotte is rapidly resegregating," says Carol Sawyer, a parent and member of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools Equity Committee.

It's a trend that is occurring around the country and is even more pronounced than expected in the wake of court cases dismantling both mandated and voluntary integration programs, a new report says. The most segregated schools, according to the report, which documents desegregation trends, are in big cities of the Northeast and Midwest. The South and West – and rural areas and small towns generally – offer minority students a bit more diversity.
