You have to remember we live in a nation that poured cement into public pools across the country just so they wouldn’t have to share them with black Americans.
I don’t think people realize how many private schools exist purely because of reintegration. People decided they would rather build new schools and pay private tuition on top of the taxes they pay for public education. Again, all of this was just so they wouldn’t have to share those schools with black Americans.
This is all recent history. Many of the people who did this are still alive.
I hear the Audubon pool was really nice too.
