hello folks

i've just finished watching the PBS show  SCHOOL COLORS, and found it to
be a great production.  It did a very good job showing just how pervasive
problems of race are in our country.  so often problems like that are easy
to ignore since we live in largely segregated worlds that it was great to
see the tensions and the pressures laid out for all to see.  very good. 
on more than one occasion you could see that the school's faculty were
operating on an entirely different set of assumptions from an entirely
different world.  the sad thing is there seems to be no answers to the
questions this school faces, which is sad because they mirror the
problems our society  faces.  what answers are there?  it seems there are none. 
what impressions did this particular movie leave on other socgradders?
