"the Obama administration's commitment to lessening school segregation is no commitment at all"

Dana Goldstein:

So far, the Obama administration's commitment to lessening school segregation is no commitment at all -- it's just talk. And by the way, it's not "many" American kids who are segregated, it's nearly half. Forty percent of black children, for example, sit each day in classrooms that are 90 to 100 percent black.

It is shameful.

What's even sicker is that we are creating schools like KIPP / Mastery Charter / etc... that only reinforce that model, and the administration is fawning all over them.
