UCLA Civil Rights Project
Amid historic shifts in Southern enrollment patterns, the black-white paradigm that long defined the South has shifted to a multiracial one comprised of three large racial/ethnic groups.

In this report, the authors summarize the most rigorous research to date showing that segregated schools are systematically linked to unequal educational opportunities. Using data from the National Center on Education Statistics, they explore how enrollment shifts and segregation trends are playing out nationally, as well as in regions, states and metropolitan areas.
