Desegregation Orders Under Review Amidst School Disparities

Desegregation Orders Under Review Amidst School Disparities

Some schools in the South, like those in Concordia Parish, have court orders from the Civil Rights era to make sure all kids, regardless of race, go to the same schools.

Now, the government wants to end these orders, saying they are no longer needed.

But some parents and civil rights groups worry this will make schools unequal again.

They're concerned about differences in resources, like new libraries, and also how students are treated.

Some people think it's time to move on, while others say the orders are still needed to protect fairness.
