Terry Stoops, the John Locke Foundation’s director of education studies, points out a major flaw in U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan’s letter to the Wake County School Board:
Wake County did not have a “long-standing policy to promote racial diversity.” It was a policy implemented for 10 years aimed at promoting “socioeconomic” diversity. Race-based busing is a no-no according to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Par for the course. That’s about the level of adherence the Obama administration has displayed toward the “laws of the land.”
