An example, perhaps, of the integrated classrooms that we're to believe are commonplace at Blair and in Takoma schools? No this is fairly typical of the "diversity" folks in Takoma are peddling.

So what if the parade route is diverse. That says nothing about the classrooms, where I still maintain you'll find a classroom of 90 percent white kids right next to one that's nearly 100 percent black and hispanic. (See above.)

Sure, the overall diversity numbers look great. Just drill down at the classroom level, though. Take a stroll along Maple, Willow -- or most any block that doesn't border the Maple Avenue apartments or head toward Langley Park.

With the exception of a small handful of interracial couples, as white as the driven snow. And with very, very few exceptions, these neighborhoods are 100 percent black and brown.

Yes indeed, back where I come from, we call that segregation.
