Race, Prosperity, and Inclusion Initiative

A teacher helps his student with a physics experiment at the Oxford International College in Changzhou, Jiangsu province January 10, 2013. The website for a private school in Changzhou, one of China's smaller cities, features blue blazers and plaid skirts, music classes and an ivy-clad brick doorway -- all the trappings of the British school system designed to appeal to wealthy Chinese parents. In choosing a smaller city, Oxford International College - no relation to the British university - is tapping into a growing market of upwardly-mobile Chinese willing to pay as much as 260,000 yuan ($41,700) a year for a Western-style education and a ticket to college overseas for their children.

Stairs, which are all that remain where a house once stood, are pictured in Waveland, Mississippi, August 26, 2015. FEMA described Waveland as "ground zero" for Hurricane Katrina. Next to a newly built city hall and a business center, dozens of housing lots remain empty. Grass and brush have grown around old "for sale" signs, some of them offering reduced prices. The whole region is littered with memories of what happened 10 years ago, and the possessions and the people that were lost. Picture taken August 26, 2015. REUTERS/Jonathan Bachman - RTX1Q1MY
