[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a helpful site others have linked to before, but I thought it was worth revisiting. You can select Montgomery County to see a map of what it would look like if each neighborhood was assigned to the closest school (according to 2013 data): [url]https://www.vox.com/2018/1/8/16822374/school-segregation-gerrymander-map[/url][/quote] Thanks. I disagree with forced diversity, but the site does make a good case.[/quote] If you look at how some of the boundaries were drawn previously, it is hard to avoid the conclusion that some of the boundaries amounted to "forced segregation." Not all of them, but some of them. So, those boundaries might become a little more natural and at the same time address over/under utilization, which isn't "forced diversity" so much as a course correction. [/quote] Like which ones? Assuming the demographics at the time they were created?[/quote]
