[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least some schools are finally taking action. Here is one (granted not in DC) https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/education/2020/01/13/nyc-doe-racist-segregation-brooklyn-specialized-high-school-exam-gifted/2763549001/[/quote] Wow, what a terrible move. All that will result from this is that any family of means (including black or hispanic) who can go to private, will do so. So all you've done is punish poor students (predominantly poor asian immigrants) and weaken public schools. Also, in that article there's a visual under the heading "Racial disparity in New York City’s kindergarten classes and its gifted and talented programs" which purposefully puts White at the top even though Asian should be at the top. Unconscious bias, anyone?[/quote]
