[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]funny how black students do better in school with a black teacher, but the Asians excel with teachers of any race. Wonder why that is? Note that the article says FCPS is a powerhouse nationally - doing something right methinks. :D [/quote] Blacks are inferior Just say what you think don't dance around it with playful quips[/quote] That is absolutely NOT what I think. Many factors contribute to the achievement gap. I was just wondering what the Asians are doing right. Why doesn't this problem affect them?[/quote] Asian families value education and put an enormous amount of pressure on their kids to get good grades. Black people in the US tend do the opposite. But I'm sure a lot of people on here will blame the principal or whatever. That is why bussing kids to the rich kids schools tends not to work out so well.[/quote] I strongly disagree. You do realize black American women are the most educated group in America, yes? That doesn’t happen if, as a race, you don’t value education. This is just one reason this type of diversity in our teacher workforce is important. Kids of all races need to know that there ARE black families that value education. Lots of them. Otherwise, races continue to accept the negative narrative about blacks that isn’t true. [/quote] No they're not. I think you are likely getting your information from sites like "The Root," which obviously has an anti-white agenda. It is true that black women blow away black men when it comes to higher education. Like, it's not even close. It's actually laughable that you believe that black Americans beat out Asians in the academic world. And it's even more pathetic that only one other person is calling you out. But I guess there is a lot of self loathing around here.[/quote] I’ve never even heard of “The Root”. Initially I thought you were accusing me of getting my information from the movie Roots when I specifically told you my info came from THE UNITED STATES CENSUS. Check those facts. Asians are the most educated IMMIGRANT group but as an immigrant group, I’d assume they probably don’t outnumber black Americans. Funny you skipped right over Whites and went straight to a comparison between black women and Asians of all people. Speaking of self-loathing. Your underpants are really in a bunch over the fact that black Americans may not be the education-loathing, degenerate underclass you desperately need them to be in order to feel superior. Check out the percentage of black Americans who are middle class and higher socioeconomically while you’re at it. You’re Exhibit A about why countries like Fairfax NEEDS teachers of color.[/quote]
