found it MUCH more segregated than my life had been. Why? Well, yes, the South had laws forcing segregation way before I was born, but I didn't grow up with it - only the aftermath of them working to rectify it. So to me, an integrated school was a normal one.

John Oliver does a pretty good commentary about that.

The North, specifically Northeast, is HEAVILY segregated compared to a lot of the south.
