The Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina is about to make a public pronouncement on school diversity.

As noted today by reporter Yonat Shimron, delegates to this weekend’s annual convention of the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina are expected to approve a resolution supporting diversity in student school assignments.

The resolution, which did not specifically mention Wake County’s public schools, would be sent to local school boards if it is approved.

Can either side claim the high moral ground in the Wake County school diversity fight?

As noted in today's article, the various Christian leaders allying with the state NAACP to restore the old diversity policy are arguing they're on the side of good. Terms like evil and Jim Crow were bandied about at Tuesday's press conference on the July 20 mass march.

“We're here today to fight against something that is extremely evil,” said the Rev. John Mendez on behalf of the General Baptist State Convention of N.C., whose 400,000 members represent the largest black denomination in the state. “We would not be here today if evil was not pervasive. But there is something evil because it is divisive.”
