My neighborhood (and county, for that matter) is majority African American. The DC suburb in which i live is reportedly the richest concentration of african americans in the country.
I remember when i attended the local public elementary school, there was one white girl (my best friend) who rode the bus with us... all the other white families in my immediate neighborhood sent their children to parochial school. However, there was a fair mix of white and black children at the public school.
I went to a magnet/ science & tech high school out side of my neighborhood (yes, i'm a product of bussing) where we had a good mix of whites, blacks, and asians (mainly fillipino). there were very few latinos/hispanics or people of arabic/middle eastern ancestry.
