[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the complaint that white kids are going to Wilson, a perceived better school, at the expense of Black students?

I think everyone, white and Black, want the best education possible for their kids.

I didn't realize that in order to be morally repulsed by racist state murder meant that you should not care about your child's education.

If you aren’t personally underwriting a URM student’s tuition at Sidwell while sending your child to Eastern, you are part of the problem [/quote]

Nope. Conor says good progressives (i.e. not racist progressives) support charters.

LOL. Charter schools are totally racist. 
- Undermines majority Black union with middle class jobs
- Allows schools to expel students who have "behavior" problems and send back to public who become worse due to adverse selection
- Does not hold schools to same educational standards
- Does not provide transportation (except transit cards) so does not resolve geographic proximity and racial segregation issues (both Latin and Basis have same % white as Wilson)

I'm sorry Conor spells it out here again. Option 1 = racist. Option 2 = progressive.

This guy is just incredible to me. So full of it. I takes a lot of chutzpah to make this case that white people being able to work systems to their advantage is not racist. I checked his employer and it’s a think tank that is pro-charter, so he’s just a guy that’s talking his own book.

[b]It’s gross that he is trying to capitalize on and appropriate anti-racist themes to support charters. Instead of being anti-racist he has instead proven himself to be racist.[/b] [/quote]

Is this a parody? I can't tell if this person is making fun of young people who think they are battling racism, or if this is actually sincere?[/quote]

The woke left has appropriated the language of the civil rights movement. "Racist" means anything they don't like. "Equity" means things they do like. As in, hamburgers are so racist but soy burgers -- that's equity. [/quote]
