[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're not interested in county efforts to make sure that county government works as well in areas with less-affluent people as in areas with affluent people - then, ok, I guess? But I am.[/quote]

I’m all for implementing solutions and supports.

I’m not interested in funding more studies.

I’m beyond frustrated with mcps. We used to have one of the best school systems in the nation, and now it’s a joke. [/quote]

Did you think equity would not come at a price?

Big picture: white privilege is entrenched in America and getting whites to give up their unearned privilege is proving extremely difficult.  People just won’t do the right thing here.

But the winds of change are blowing.[/quote]

Rhetoric. Word salad. Meaningless blah blah blah.

Tell us exactly what we need to invest in so that everyone achieves equity.

BTW, I’m a liberal who has never and will never vote Republican. Nonetheless, I’m growing tired of the performative wokeness that prompts meaningless rhetoric in the form of knee jerk lectures. Even worse: throwing money down the drain on things that yield no measurable results.

I’d love to see MoCo have tough conversations about why migrants who arrive without knowing English can manage to thrive after a generation while some black residents cannot similarly achieve. Both groups face racism, so that can’t be it. Determine what the problem is and fix it. [/quote]

This. It’s all talk. No actual measurable goals or progress toward those goals. It makes people feel better is all. We never hear about the root of the problem and work to fix that.  Another coat of paint on an old, worn down house. [/quote]
