The Houston Chronicle reports that a federal civil rights suit has been filed in Houston against Child Protective Services of discriminating against African American children, saying they are likelier to be separated from their parents and extended families than white children. The suit, which took legs in Arizona after a woman, was denied custody of her nephew. The boy later approved for adoption by a white family in Houston. The suit brought federal activists to the federal courts this week.
