Description

Photo shows a group of young children in a neighborhood school. Negro leaders in Los Angeles have charged that de facto segregation exists in our public school system because of the concentration of the Negro population into certain areas. They have asked that elementary and secondary school boundaries be redrawn around these "Negro districts," that minority students be transferred from crowded schools to less crowded ones in a 15-mile radius, and that "barriers" to promotion of certified Negro personnel be eliminated.
