[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yep.  There are a whole lot of hypocrites on this website that's for sure.[/quote]

+1. I find it so funny that they are so defensive about their hypocrisy. Yes, dear, you purchased a 1.2 million dollar, 1,000 sq ft home in upper NW “for the schools”. We all know what you mean.  But, hey, you went to a BLM protest and have a little sign in your yard.[/quote]

Exactly. That’s the point. Nice white liberal parents that get offended when they get called out on their inconsistencies [/quote]

Nah. Most of us own that we are holed up in a bubble in NWDC for the schools and know the whiteness is a problem. The issue is being called out by another white privileged man who is pretending he is better because he sends his kids to a charter school (and pats himself on the back for taking care of his kids). Both sets of parents contribute to the lack of good public school options in upper grades. Arguably the writer of this article shares more of the burden since he is actively avoiding his neighborhood school. [/quote]

Why even feel an ounce of guilt as a rich person living in NW for the schools? If the parents of the kids who can’t read at grade level gave more of a sht about education, especially considering all the federal and local money spent per pupil, then this wouldn’t be an issue. Instead of wallowing in useful guilt. Don’t.[/quote]
