I know black schools were worse during segregation, but my point is that since they are better now, and we see no increase in black IQ scores, the conclusion is that school quality probably doesn't matter at all. This is further supported by the fact that test scores are unrelated to increased spending.

> The impact of this is clear as during desegregation test scores and earnings increased and dropout rate and even incarceration rates decreased, all while the white values for these metrics stayed the same.

The incarceration rate for blacks was actually smaller during segregation than it is now. Racial income gap started narrowing during segregation. It was due to migration of blacks North where wages were higher.

And white wealth did not stay the same in the slightest. It increased at higher rates than that of blacks.

I don't know about test-scores. The oldest SAT data I've seen were only to 1970s and since then the racial gap remained the same. What's your source on that?
