CNN Student News - Apr. 5, 2007.doc

MONICA LLOYD, CNN STUDENT NEWS ANCHOR: It's a new day, and a new edition of CNN Student News. Glad to have you with us. I'm Monica Lloyd. Nearly two weeks after they were captured, a group of British sailors and marines is set to head home at the apparent end of an international standoff. More than 50 years after segregation formally ended, students at one school seem to divide themselves by race when they go to the cafeteria for lunch. And after settling in to enjoy their sandwiches, some Quizno's customers are joined by a coyote who was looking to cool down.

First Up: British Troops Crisis

LLOYD: First up today, an international showdown appears to be over. If you've been watching our program, you know a group of British sailors and marines has been held in Iran for almost two weeks. Those 15 service members now look to be heading home. After a tense standoff, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced Wednesday the crew would be released back to Britain. Reba Hollingsworth has both countries' reactions to the announcement in Iran.

TONY BLAIR, BRITISH PRIME MINISTER: I'm glad our 15 service personnel are released.

REBA HOLLINGSWORTH, CNN REPORTER: A seemingly forgiving Tony Blair welcomed the announcement that the 15 British sailors and marines will soon be released.

BLAIR: We're grateful for your forgiveness.

HOLLINGSWORTH: Hours earlier, in an unusual photo op, the British captives, dressed in tailored suits, shook hands with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad--- thanking him for their imminent release.

SOT: Good luck sir.

HOLLINGSWORTH: The stunning development was revealed by President Amadinejad 35 minutes into a televised news conference.

MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD, IRANIAN PRESIDENT: I announce their freedom and their return to the people of Britain.

HOLLINGSWORTH: This after the president, with characteristic showmanship, had awarded a bravery medal to the commander of the Iranian military team that captured the British sailors and Marines. Held for nearly two weeks, they were accused of illegally entering Iranian waters. An act some of the captives admitted in staged videotaped confessions. Britain disputed that claim, and declined to offer Iran an apology. But Ahmadinejad denied that the release of the captives was a reversal of tactics. Ahmadinejad says Britain did send his government a letter, promising not to intrude into Iranian waters. Britain Prime Minister Tony Blair did not comment on a letter, but delivered this message to the people of Iran.

BLAIR: We bear you no ill will. And the disagreements that we have with your government we wish to resolve peacefully, through dialogue.

HOLLINGSWORTH: As for those British captives, Iranian officials say they'll head home on Thursday. For CNN Student News, I'm Reba Hollingsworth.

Fast Facts

CARL AZUZ, CNN STUDENT NEWS: Time for some Fast Facts! Of America's 300-plus-million people, here's a quick breakdown by race: About 67 percent are classified as non-Hispanic white. Hispanics or Latinos make up the country's largest minority, composing a little more than 14 percent of the population. African-Americans make up just under 13 percent. Asians compose almost 5 percent of the U.S. population. And people of other descents or ethnic groups account for the remaining population.

Where Do You Sit?

LLOYD: More than 50 years ago, the Supreme Court said it was illegal for public schools to be segregated, or separated by race. But at a school in Buffalo, New York, one look at the cafeteria shows students from different backgrounds separating themselves. Paula Zahn talked to some students there to hear what they say.

CHELSEA RUSH: I tend to gravitate towards you know, people of my culture because they know what I'm going through at home.

HEATHER MORRIS: If I have a choice of sitting next to a black person or a white person who I know, I'm going to sit next to the white person who I know.

MEGHAN EVANS: You don't really notice, oh I'm sitting with all black people until somebody says something to you, then you look around and you're like oh.

PAULA ZAHN, CNN REPORTER: When you walk into this school it is clear just how racially diverse it is. A school made up of Blacks, Whites, and Hispanics. And in the classrooms and the hallways you see all of these kids mix, but what happens here in the cafeteria is a completely different story, You see a huge racial divide. Just look at this one table. All the white kids at this end eating together and then at the other end of this table, all of the black students together.

JAMILA WILLIAMS: Mostly, it's not a racial issue. We just sit with who we feel comfortable with.

ZAHN: So we shouldn't read more into the segregation we see at lunch than what you're saying?

JAMILA: No, it's not like we hate each other because we're from a different race, it's just who we choose to sit with.

JONATHAN COOPER: It just happens to break up by race. We relate on certain things, we come from the same neighborhood, you know we probably go to the same church, we like the same clothes, we like the same music.

ZAHN: Do you ever sit with white kids at lunch?

COOPER: When I go from table to table, I say hi, I don't necessarily sit there for my whole lunch.

MORRIS: It's more habit. If somebody sits with me then they sit with me, if they don't, they don't.

ZAHN: Is there underlying tension?

MORRIS: No.

MYRON ROGERS: White kids are intimidated by black people. People like to sit with people they feel more comfortable and relate to.

ZAHN: So how much do you think race is an issue?

ROGERS: It is somewhat, but not like a big issue.

ZAHN: Big or small it's an issue that mirrors the community they live in: Buffalo, one of the most racially segregated cities in the country.

ZAHN: Can you completely rule out what role race plays in this?

KEVIN KAZMIERCZIAK, PRINCIPAL: No. I can't.

ZAHN: Kevin Kazmiercziak is the principal of the Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts.

KAZMIERCZIAK: It would certainly be great if we could see more of an intermixing in the cafeteria. It would give us more hope for the future.

ZAHN: He knows first hand just how hard that is to do. Two years ago the school tried.

ZAHN: For a documentary, called 'I Sit Where I Want,' cameras followed his students as they tried to re-integrate their racially-divided cafeteria. For a couple of days they tried to get people to mix. It worked short-term. But soon after the cameras left, the white kids went back to sitting with whites, the blacks with the blacks, and the Hispanics with Hispanics.

BEVERLY DANIEL TATUM, AUTHOR: You would not expect that a one time experience would necessarily change well established patterns.

ZAHN: Beverly Daniel Tatum is not surprised. She wrote a book called 'Why Are All The Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria' and says clustering by race is human nature.

TATUM: You can see it in corporate America when you walk into the corporate dining rooms, you can see it in colleges and universities, certainly you can see it in lots of different contexts.

ZAHN: While Tatum thinks self-segregation can create a positive self-identity and racial awareness, it can also promote intolerance and racism.

TATUM: Particularly in an environment where there's a lot of racial tension is that it can continue to fuel that racial tension.

ZAHN: With new reports of racial incidents at the Buffalo Academy, principal Kazmierczak is concerned.

KAZMIERCZAK: We are hearing students saying I was called this particular name which refers to my race. It's not at the level where I'm sounding an alarm, but certainly it's something that we monitor all the time.

ZAHN: So for now, he promotes diversity and tolerance in classrooms and school activities. As for the cafeteria, it remains divided.

Before We Go

LLOYD: Before we go, a coyote who's after a different kind of fast food. The roadrunner had a day off from being chased Tuesday, as this wily coyote walked through the door of a Quizno's in downtown Chicago. He skipped the subs and plopped down in the cooler, right next to the sodas and juice. Customers calmly left the restaurant as the coyote cooled his heels until animal control arrived and took him away.

Goodbye

LLOYD: And that howler rounds out today's edition of CNN Student News. We hope you'll join us again tomorrow. I'm Monica Lloyd.
