the problem is that school integration is effectively an iterated prisoners' dilemma
school districts are drawn for political reasons just like anything else and there are plenty that cover multiple de facto segregated communities

I'm not sure what you're arguing, that minorities almost universally prefer integrated schools because it's a status symbol?
-
The research I've done led to my position that school integration lowered average school performance vs a counterfactual no integration.
-
I'm not saying integration improves schools, I'm saying the drag on the majority is slight but the boost for the minority is large
-
which is why minorities overwhelming prefer integration and whites tend to prefer segregation in practice even while decrying it in theory
-
> why minorities overwhelming prefer integration That's not exactly true.
