Ted, > why do you doubt its not racism based on that fact?

Because the student body is just a few percentage points away from being a black majority.

By the way, the original article didn't mention the 46% figure, but a couple of links provided by the article did:

> McGehee Secondary School is predominantly white, and 46 percent African-American, according to the complaint.

Somewhere else, I saw that other races other than black or white made up 4% of the student body.
