Has MLK's dream been realized?

The stats of enrolment in schools and other education charts the results were surprising. More blacks are enrolling in schools, but there are more african american dropouts than white. The race with the highest drop outs are the hispanics and that goes for a lot of other catagories. 28/14/11 is the order of hispanics to blacks to white drop outs. School enrollment by race is 55/59/49. That is white/black/hispanic. MLK would not find this equal but in some catagories the smaller races are enrolling more. It seems though that for the hispanics it's decreasing. in 1980 more hispanics enrolled. For whites and blacks both have increased unlike the hispanics. When martin luther king jr. said everyone should be equal he mean whites, blacks, and hispanics. More are populating the U.S. so it's important that they get an education to.
