CHARLES SCHWARTZ, Jr., District Judge.
Trevor Brown, a schoolchild seeking to sue by his parent and next friend, and a large group of other Black residents of Louisiana1 seek to intervene in this litigation brought by the United States. The government’s complaint alleges that Louisiana has failed to operate its public system of higher education in a manner consistent with the requirements of the Constitution and of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. 2000d and 2000d-l. They seek intervention individually and as representatives of the class of all Black residents of the state.
