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
