FTA: "Studies have shown schools drifting back into segregation since the 1980s, when the federal government became less aggressive in its enforcement."

Ruling on racial isolation in Miss. schools reflects troubling broader trend
TYLERTOWN, MISS. -- Last week, a federal judge ruled that a school board policy here in Walthall County has had the effect of creating "racially identifiable" schools in violation of a 1970 federal desegregation order. Although the case is unique in some ways, it fits a broader trend toward racial isolation that has been underway for years in American schools and has undermined the historic school integration efforts of the civil rights era.
