As a result, white
suburban school districts were under no constitutional requirement to
integrate their
schools when their new white students had fled a central - city
school district that was promulgating a desegregation plan.
This may well be true, but it is surprising to see such strong advocacy for the racial integration of
schools at a time when the prospects for any public action — executive, legislative, or judicial — to combine for purposes of
integrating urban and
suburban school districts are just about nonexistent.
