Umm, for the last 30 years, white folks have been moving back into the cities and Blacks have been escaping to the suburbs.

Frankly, if folks want to live with their own kind, fine with me; I do!. The problem with segregation is that government spending (federal, state, local) is/can be disparate based on population demographics NOT objective factors such as tax base and geography. This practice has led to the 'seperate but unequal' facilities of the past which have filtered down to some of the inequities we see today.
