The Re-Segregation Of Public Schools

Lots of sniping about this study at the link.
Are Charter Schools A Civil Rights Failure?

A study released last week by the Civil Rights Project at the University of California, Los Angeles, concluded that although charter schools are a political success, they are a civil rights failure. The report found that charter schools are more racially homogenized than traditional public schools and asserted that those in the western United States are havens for white re-segregation.
Is this a fair characterization of the charter school movement?
