[quote=Anonymous]I tend to think the residential segregation piece has to come first. Communities are geographically defined. We tend to create community with people who we live close to. Because it is very easy for me to pick up another neighborhood kid when I pick mine up and drop them home. Because it is easier to socialize close to home. Because it is easier to go to PTA meetings when they are close to home. I think if housing is more integrated racially and by SES, then those are people you see and get to know over the years. From preschoolers playing at the neighborhood park to school and after school activities, to faith communities, etc. A community can wrap around a child in need. A school can't do it alone. [/quote]
