Leslie is joined by callers as they discuss a federal judge ordering a school district in Cleveland, Mississippi to merge its two high schools and two middle schools.

The judge "ordered the district to merge East Side High, where all but one student is black, with Cleveland High, where 48 percent of students are white and 45 percent are black. Similarly, the district must merge D.M. Smith Middle, where all but two students are black, with Margaret Green Junior High, where 41 percent of students are white and 54 percent are black."
