Or perhaps I'm just naive, but this story really struck me. This year, 2007, Turner County (Georgia) High School holds its first ever integrated prom. Before that, white kids went to a white-only prom, and black kids went to a black-only prom. In 2006 the school stopped electing separate black and white homecoming queens in favor of a single queen.
It's good to see progress toward integration, but it's obviously slow in coming.
