[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know the people who are incredibly vocal. But, basically if you aren’t black, you are not allowed to have an opinion on anything that might impact black students — even if it impacts all students. So, basically if you are white you cannot have opinions.

They fail to follow their own logic to its reasonable conclusion. If a black child was dissuaded or incorrectly told they had to do something to take an AP class or whatever, it is because the child is black. Full stop. If I’m a teacher or counselor, I would be very hesitant to counsel any black child on whether they should take any class for fear folks like those on AEM label me a racist obstructionist. As a result, of I were a counselor, black children would receive less effective advice. But it would be harder for AEM types to peg their per se racist tag on me in the latter situation.

But, they don’t think that way. They think they can get what they want by bulldozing the world calling it racist. The problem is, some people are racist. But their tactics make it really hard  for people who aren’t to want to stand up and engage on the issues out of fear of being labeled racist. All it means is they have fewer people wanting to help them fight their fight.

AEM should be a case study for this kind of stuff. [/quote]
