[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At some point, well-educated UMC parents (regardless of race) need to wake up (become "woke" heh) and realize being an elitist is not evil. You worked hard to be an elite, and you want to give your kids the same opportunity. Or, if not, just be a hypocrite about what you say versus what you do. There's not much in-between, other than to try to be a good person while seeking the best for your family.[/quote] Yeah you only think that because you're scared. I'm here to tell you that there are extremely smart, extremely well-educated parents who are not obsessed with maximizing the eliteness of our children's educations via whiteness as a proxy. Perhaps we are more secure in our childrens abilities than you are? Probably. [/quote] I don't think anyone with children enrolled in a DC Public School is scared of diversity. At all. Transparently, you think the worst of "white people's" motivations, when they are participating in a school district composed of only 10% white people. You're blind. This isn't Alabama or something. [/quote] I'm white and hate political correctness but you are blind as a bat to say this. Many white folks are avoiding schools because they don't have a high enough white population. [/quote] Where? In D.C.? I suppose you could bring up Banneker as maybe the only example, but whites are not avoiding that school because they're "scared of diversity," which was the premise of this mini-thread. Maybe they are avoiding that demonstrably very good school because it is NOT diverse, but that would be another point entirely. [/quote]
