Nebraska's 'New Apartheid' Signed into Law for Omaha Schools

Different Strokes for Different Folks | Segregation Might Work This Time Around

Wow. This is segregation revisited, but judging from what Omaha schools are doing as a result of a new Nebraska state law, there might be some benefits.

The Omaha school districts will be divided into a predominately black, predominately Hispanic and predominately Caucasian sections. In this way, the respective school boards can make decisions that better suit these ethnic populations.

This might seem OK in theory, but how scary is it to revisit a philosophy that frighteningly resembles, say, South African apartheid or Southern segregation in the 1950s before the Supreme Court put a stop to it?

But, realistically, look around. Don't most school districts align themselves in this fashion unofficially? Seems that way to me.

Nobody seems that alarmed at the Nebraska approach and most parents and community leaders seem to be pushing the diea.

One thing is certain: Test scores will be measurably better in the white district, and the longer the policy is in place, the more that gap will grow.
