Title: EWP Gray Commission Image page 007
Description: Page 7 of the Gray Commission Report argues that segregation has been beneficial to both races and claims that public education for Black students has improved because of it. The Commission asserts that forced integration could lead to the closure of public schools in many Virginia communities, particularly where white residents would rather abandon the system than comply. It emphasizes local control over school policies, suggesting that decisions on teacher employment, student assignments, and school operations should be left to local authorities to address racial tensions in their own communities.
