Formally, 'Aparthied' may have been dispersed inside the United States and South Africa. On the other hand, there is still the illegal version, in every way that is still bad, every bit as evil and just as belittling as all segregation was destined to be. In "Little Rock Central: 50 Years Later," HBO's 2007 which was a documentary concerning the present-day Little Rock Central High School, a teenage girl mentions, "You [Caucasians] have it all fed on a silver spoon from the day you were born." The writer Jonathan Kozol makes this affirmation in his statement that was in a 2005 article from Harper's Magazine: "The current per-pupil expenditure level in the New York City [public] schools is $12,700, which can be linked with a per-pupil expenses equal in the additional of $23,000 in the wealthy suburban region of Manhasset, Long Island." Furthermore, he mentions that New York City schools are not yet reaching the backing levels that some of the more rich suburban schools had approximately three decades ago.

One African-American AP student that was attending at Little Rock Central High had hope, mentioning, "I believe there is a lot more out there. I know I can much better than here," while a different AP student is dejected: "We are not really being acknowledged for trying, and that's the reason why a lot of black kids do not even try."

Nancy Rousseau, who is the Little Rock Central High's principal, endeavored to endorse incorporation by heartening students to sit with friends of dissimilar backgrounds during lunch. Not astonishingly, students really did ignore her request. As the camera went and scanned through the cafeteria, spectators could see obvious separations: black students sat with each other, white students sat with each other, and even the Hispanic students all sat together, each in various places. One African-American student that was in AP classes at Little Rock Central High does have some hope, mentioning, "I know there's more out there. I know I can do better than this," while another AP student is crestfallen: "We're not being recognized for trying, and that's why a lot of black kids do not like to try."

Not simply were the cafeteria the only place segregated, but most of the classrooms were as well. A black student in remedial courses mentioned, "Everything is done to make the black person look cold," and the other students -- white as well as black -- simply nodded their heads. One black girl made the point that blacks had to work much harder just to gain a little respect.

Some believe segregation is still alive in places like little Rock because we spend too much money on the Iraq war rather than on the education. Some believe that if the government just redirected this toward educating its own citizens, public schools could be totally redesigned. For instance, experts made a prediction that $40 billion could offer preschool for all three- and four-year-olds. This service should be able to help millions of children and cost a portion of the war expenditures. Why not elect a percentage of the military...

Although isolated schools were basically gotten rid of after Brown v. Board of Education, overloaded and poorly provided black schools still happened in the south. Still in the Little Rock School region, problems still happen with subsidy for Central High School. It is domineering that the U.S. has open-minded, assorted communities that are able to increase productivity and then compete in the worldwide economy. All Americans really do deserve to have an equal chance to reach the American Dream; this new start lies in the hands of those that are willing to fight against the existing state of affairs.
