Morphology

integrated = integrate (transparent) = integrate + ed

Formed by adding -ed to the verb 'integrate'; the adjectival sense 'not segregated' follows directly from 'to make whole or include'.

Etymology

Integrated comes from the Latin root integer, which means 'whole'. A helpful image is bringing different people together to make one 'whole' community, so an integrated place is not separated by race or group.
