[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just finished “Nice White Parents” podcast and the central thesis is that white patents only function well in integrated schools where they have zero power to influence decision making (no excuses academies). When unleashed in other public schools b/c of white fragility they fail to sufficiently acknowledge the inherent white mediocrity of their offspring and their part in suppressing AA excellence (and assumed superiority) by asking for G&T, immersion instruction, etc. Of course, if white parents go private -white fragility. If they stay and complain-white fragility. If they form charter schools -white fragility. The only acceptable response is to call for all white teachers, staff, and principals to be fired in favor of AA teachers and staff, for white parents to hand over the deeds to their homes, and quit their jobs while ensuring that their jobs are given to AAs. Anything short of this modest proposal = white fragility. [/quote]

Jesus that is crazy stupid stuff that is not believable.  I have not listened to it to comment though.  I’m not white either, am a minority group where of course prejudices and racism also exist.

I will tell you one thing though and that is the minorities who make it to the middle and upper class don’t play the victim or race card.  They work hard and understand that education is the likely way out of their low socioeconomic class.  I know growing up poor on free lunches.[/quote]

That summary of Nice White Parents is clearly from someone too obtuse to understand the points being made.  I don't understand why they'd even listen to 5 hours of a podcast if they're going to be close-minded about it.  Maybe hate-listening?  Or just pretending to have listened?[/quote]

It sounds like reading is hard for you. Yikes.  :oops: [/quote]
