Prof. Orfield Interviewed on CNN Newswire

Professor Myron Orfield was interviewed by CNN Newswire about the relationship of growing racial segregation to urban conflict between non-white citizens and police. In discussing racial and economic tensions in St. Paul, Orfield said that racial segregation in housing and dismantling school integration programs in the 1990s, along with a trend of racial profiling by police, can all be contributing factors to the growing unrest in these communities.
