Trump officials are vowing to end school desegregation orders. Some parents say they're still needed
Six decades after the federal government ordered Concordia Parish to desegregate its schools, the district remains racially divided. Black students make up more than 92% of Ferriday High School, while 15 minutes away, Vidalia High is 62% white. Yet state and local officials say it鈥檚 time to free Concordia Parish and other districts from court-ordered desegregation orders dating back decades. In a stunning shift that reverses decades of policy, they have allies in the federal government. The Trump administration has vowed to lift more desegregation plans from the 1960s. Civil rights activists say it would leave families with little recourse when they face discrimination.

South Dakota is on a path to invest $2 billion into its corrections facilities in the next decade as a result of its stringent crime laws. The inmate population is projected to soar 30% in the next 10 years because of recent laws that keep people behind bars for longer. Now the state is expected to make decisions about where these prisons will go and how much to spend. Lawmakers have yet to reconsider the laws driving the inmate population surge or suggest prison alternatives. Without those, experts say the state is sure to run out of prison space soon.
