the lower ninth ward, which was ajority african-americans. and it inundated neighborhoods like you, which is a middle class white neighborhood. the water was unsparing and in some sense, it was an equal opportunity disaster in terms of who was damaged and whose house was under water. the industrial canal happened to be the biggest body of water and it was right adjacent to one of the poorest neighborhoods in the city. host: julian is calling in from louisiana. go ahead. caller: yeah, just in reference to that last caller, the river had nothing to do with the lower ninth ward. when they opened to the industrial canal, i goes in a lake unless the levee falls down. i notice the 17th streets with lake view, that was an engineering failure. did you ever find anything? when you say engineering, when you're talking about building a levy or a dike or whatever, you get -- that dictate what is the engineering's going to be because whatever you're going to put in the ground is only good for the soil you put in. and if you set a set of blueprint it's got an engineering stamp on it. was it a real engineer? guest: that's a complex question

the last two decades. a ucla study last year pointed out that many black and latino students, quote, face almost total isolation, not only from white and asian students but also from middle-class peers as well. these findings would not surprise the singaporeans. the natural workings of society rarely lead to diverse and integrated communities, not in singapore, not anywhere else the prime minister said to me. they more likely lead to mistrust, self-segregation and even bigotry, which we see in abundance in so many countries today. he pointed out that in britain half the muslim population lives in the bottom 10% of its neighborhoods by income. did that happen by chance, he asks? singapore is an unusual case. it's a small city-state. it has its critics who point to a quasi-author towerian system, one that impedes free expression and makes opposition parties face severe handicaps. singapore can do things western democracies cannot. its had its own racial problems. all that said, i believe singapore is an example of a diverse society that has been able to live together and that we could learn something from it. >>> for more go to cnn.com/fareed and read my "washington post" column
