The Goose Creek Raid: Racially Motivated?

The scene seemed out of place for Goose Creek, South Carolina’s highly rated, suburban high school: policemen with their guns drawn forcing more than 100 students to the floor. It turned out to be a drug raid gone wrong; no drugs were found. So why did Stratford High School Principal George McCrackin reportedly call for the raid to quell the school’s perceived drug problem? Was it because a majority of the "potential suspects" in the raid were African-American—who are the minority at the school? Or was it the act of an overzealous, colorblind educator? This ABC News program examines what role, if any, race plays in Goose Creek, with the high school as its center. (22 minutes)
