School segregation was deemed unconstitutional in 1954, but sociologists argue that schools are beginning to resegregate in contemporary times. Why is this occurring? How is this segregation different than it was in 1950?
Please provide the best answer for the statement
1. Since the 1990s, segregation has again been increasing in the South, largely due to court
decisions at the structural level of society. These courts have decided that schools that
were under court-enforced integration were not meant to be observed forever, even if it
leads to renewed segregation. This has led to a disbanding of extended busing that brings
racially diverse students into schools.
2. Segregation numbers today are similar to what they were in the 1960s in the South.
3. Segregation in schools today is based on both race and socioeconomic status, as black and
Latino/a youth often live in segregated poor communities, whereas white and Asian youth
are more likely to live in affluent neighborhoods and thus attend different schools.
4. Segregation in schools today is also different in that it is not a policy that these students be
segregated. Instead, they are segregated because school districts are not working on
intentionally integrating their schools.
