City schools chief Richard Carranza lauded a white parent who on Tuesday called for forced classroom integration.

The mom, Holly, called in to WNYC’s “The Brian Lehrer Show” to tell Carranza that she’s sending her kids to local schools in East Flatbush and that integration had to be “forced on the public in order to work.”

“In addition to busing low-income students into the richer schools . . . white families . . . need to be told . . . you can’t live in East Flatbush and send your kid to . . . Park Slope. You have to take your kid to the school around your corner,” she said.

Without endorsing her suggestion, Carranza said, “I can’t thank you enough for what you’ve expressed, and thank you to you and your husband for having a true equity lens in terms of what you want to do for your children and . . . all of our children.”
