    My sister lives in US and told me that there are two schools in her town: the “mostly white” one and the worse one. Kids go to one or another based on their address. She said that her kids went to the better school and she had to prove her residence only once and then no one bothered her anymore. Latinos were asked to prove their residence every year. Penalty for sending your kid to the better school while living in the worse part of town? Jail. This is still happening in US today.
