At least it's brown lawns people don't want in their neighborhoods these days.

It's still both everywhere, but not as much anywhere as some would like to believe. It's better now than it ever was, and as long as it keeps moving in that direction that's a good thing.

I mean, schools are more segregated now then they were 40 years ago. So no, it's not better than it ever was, it's just more quiet.

That's just one data point in one area, and doesn't necessarily reflect racism. My general statement is still accurate - racism has been and still is on the decline.
