Trump Officials Are Vowing to End School Desegregation Orders. Some Parents Say They’re Still Needed

  • Concordia Parish has remained under a court-ordered school desegregation plan since it was mandated in 1965 in Louisiana.
  • The order originated from Black families suing for access to all-white schools amid strict segregation and Klan violence in 1965.
  • The Trump administration began lifting similar desegregation orders statewide in April, but Concordia rejected a DOJ plan to end its case last year.
  • Brian Davis, a Ferriday father, said, "It's almost like our kids don't deserve it," highlighting ongoing racial and resource disparities despite the orders.
  • Officials plan to unwind orders viewed as burdens, but civil rights groups and some local voices insist segregation and inequality persist in schools like Concordia.
