[quote=Anonymous]As a black person who grew up in a “black power” household and community, I think there is a point being missed. How exactly is the Afrofuturist focus improving the school and student outcomes? I am surrounded by black people who aren’t sending their students to Dunbar because the theme alone isn’t sufficient when they also want better academic programs. What does Afrofuturism mean in a school context? Will there be a strong public speaking program inspired by MLK? A pre-med program that reflects the legacy of Dr. Charles Drew? Advanced math tracks in honor of the two black teenagers who recently found trigonomic proof of the Pythagorean theorem? Whatever the theme, the academics have to be clear and robust. IMO, that’s what is driving all kinds of families to other school options. [/quote]
