Description

Rankin County School District is seeking to end a 1967 court ruling that mandated desegregation in the area. District attorneys say the school system has made efforts for that cause, but others say more needs to be done.

Then, mental health experts are seeking solutions to cut down on suicide rates in Mississippi.

Plus, a new documentary airing this week on MPB Television recounts the life of Medgar Wylie-Evers, and how he helped advance the Civil Rights movement in the state.
