[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Hmong and Vietnamese aren't the same culture. So what you're saying is that it must be partially culturally driven, i.e., cultures and subcultures with strong academic and work focus do well as immigrants/citizens and those that don't have that same focus, don't do as well? Because that's an argument that seems to hold water.[/quote]And what stops AA community from developing such culture? If an Indian uneducated farmer can do it so can they.[/quote] This question and your repeated reference to "you" (why not just go ahead and make it "you people") is a big part of the problem. You see every black American as poor, uneducated and unmotivated while it's unlikely that anyone posting here falls under that description. The irony is that, for all this talk about the parental role in creating successful students, you would be no more willing to send your kids to a failing school than a parent who's stuck with one.
