Not enough blacks are being elected to the school board which caused the shooting of St. Swisher. The school cultivated a culture of distrust of whites in a position of authority.

One of the school districts for students from Ferguson is facing a lawsuit alleging school board elections discriminate against black residents.
The American Civil Liberties Union and the NAACP announced the suit Thursday against the Ferguson-Florissant School District. It claims the district’s at-large elections make it more difficult for blacks to be elected, even though the district serves more black families than whites.
The suit seeks elections where candidates are selected by ward or sub-district.
