From KCRW in Santa Monica and PRI, Public Radio International, this is To the Point.

The resegregation of America's public schools.

Hello again, I'm Marvin Allene, and this is To the Point from Public Radio International.

A daily look at the issues Americans care about most.

For the first time, a majority of public school students are ethnic minorities, but that

doesn't mean greater diversity in the schools. Minority populations are concentrated in their

own neighborhoods, and many whites have either moved out or sent their kids elsewhere. Blacks,

Hispanics, and Asians are sitting in class with a

diminishing number of whites. It's been 60 years since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that separate

could never be equal, but segregation is back. What does that mean for the quality of education?

Today's talking point, the competition heats up for unmanned drones to make deliveries to your doorstep.

First, here's the news.

Hello again. We're on me back with To The Point. Minority students now outnumber whites in America's public schools, but the result is not greater

diversity. It's a return to segregation. We'll hear about the economics of that and white flight

and the quality of education. Today's talking point, Google and Amazon are among the companies

locked in a competition to deliver packages using unmanned drones. The secrecy has been lifted from Google's pilot project in the air over Australia.

We'll heard about that.

First is news update.
