        Same writers, same producer, and same creator. -- nm - MDH Aug 12, 08:30 1

"Ferguson’s police chief and mayor are white. Of the six City Council members, one is black." - ty97 Aug 12, 07:06 10
- The city itself may be, but the Ferguson-Florissant school district is 69.3% white -- (link) - Roger More Aug 12, 07:24 7
  - Also...for anyone who heard any of the scuttlebutt about schools losing their accreditation and the students having to go to other districts. - Jim Aug 12, 07:32
  - Can't use the Ferg-Flor school district as your barometer for the city of Ferguson. - Jim Aug 12, 07:31 3
    - That's what I'm saying - that the school board votes are (broadly speaking) for Florissant + Ferguson, not just Ferguson. - Roger More Aug 12, 07:45
    - But don't a lot of kids on the west side of Florissant go to Hazelwood schools? -- nm - spamlet Aug 12, 07:33 1
      - A large chuck of Florissant goes to Hazelwood, yes. Either way, though...you can't use those school district numbers for this discussion.. - Jim Aug 12, 07:35
  - I think that may be just the city of Florissant, it's neighbor where the kids on the west side (whiter) of the city go to a different district. - spamlet Aug 12, 07:28
  - Appears that Florissant (which has 2.5x more people than Ferguson) is 69.3% white as well. - ty97 Aug 12, 07:26
- The mayor and school board are elected, putting their composition directly - TWuG Aug 12, 07:11 1
