I was in all white schools in an all white town (yes, the town is racist AF. So much so that the klan marched thru town cuz President Clinton had the audacity to try to integrate the public housing in the town.) Every one of those schools had free lunch programs. It ain't no race thing. It has to do with income. Tell your friend to educate herself.
