The states with the most segregated public schools are epicenters of liberalism
Via Nancy
The state with the most segregated public schools
is New York.
Other states with exceptionally segregated schools include California, Illinois and Michigan.
These findings come from a longitudinal study of enrollment figures conducted by the Civil Rights Project at the University of California at Los Angeles, The Associated Press reports. The period studied was 1998 through 2010.
New York, California, Illinois and Michigan are traditionally among the most reliably Democratic states in the union, as an interactive 2012 map created by Slate shows.
A 2013 “State of the States” feature by Gallup indicates that New York, California and Illinois are “solid Democratic” strongholds. Michigan leans Democratic.
Researchers determined the level of segregation by measuring the exposure of students at a school to students from racial groups different from their own.
