[quote=Anonymous]No axe to grind. Institutional racism involves economic class as well. Of course most of the students in DC schools are Black. The population of the city is mostly black. This thread is about tracking...to get back to the main point. When structures are in place, like tracking, to hold back individuals from receiving an equal opportunity to learn then it is called institutional racism. It is not only about whether you are black, white, Asian, etc. It is particularly aggregious when schools track students at the young age or 8 or 9, deciding for them at such an early age that their opportunities are going to be limited for the rest of their schooling. Why? Because it begins the downward spiral...the achievement gap...[/quote]
