Charlottesville’s Other Jim Crow Legacy: Separate and Unequal Education

This story was originally co-published by ProPublica and the New York Times. High school seniors Zyahna Bryant and Trinity Hughes have been friends since they were 6 years old, raised by blue-collar families in this affluent college town. They played on the same T-ball and softball teams and were in the same church group. But like many African American children in Charlottesville, Trinity lived on the south side of town and went to a predominantly black neighborhood elementary school.
