[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I would quibble with this. Most white families don't want their children to socialize with/marry blacks and the feeling is often the same in the black community. The insertion of Ivy League "Teach for America" whites in black schools was a dismal failure and resulted in the dismissal of some very qualified black teachers. Many people want community schools made up of friends and neighbors. I don't hold with codifying segregation but [b]why fight it when it happens as a matter of choice[/b]?[/quote] It's a choice in the same sense that my kids' choice of kale over collard greens is a choice. They don't want either kale or collard greens, they want cherry tomatoes. But I'm not offering them cherry tomatoes. If I said, "Why fight it when my kids choose kale?", they would quite rightly point out that, to the extent that they chose kale, it was as the less bad of two bad options.[/quote]
