[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course we know what they mean. When they have a special program for minorities Asians can't participate. But why is that? Why is it that the wealthy child of doctors who happens to be black is eligible and the Vietnamese immigrant child who is poor cannot? Why? Why can't they change the discussion to focus on income and not on race and ethnicity. I think part of it is that they are okay with the wealthy child of black doctors participating. But not the poor Asian child. Why is that and why doesn't anyone question this? [/quote] Because you're tilting at windmills here. There are no "special programs" run by MCPS that are closed to Asian American students. There are programs that are limited to poor/working class kids and programs limited to kids in high needs schools, but not programs that are only open to certain races. [/quote]
