There's also trailer parks, Appalachia and dying mid-western towns. I'm guessing a majority of them don't have access to better public schools. Sounds more of a problem of how public schools are funded than structural racism, which benefits richer districts. This is a good example of a class issue, since there's no shortage of poorer white folks as well. Yes, there's a smaller percentage of them, but also a larger overall number (5.3 million non-Hispanic white children in 2019 compared to 4.1 million black).
