[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Poverty and race go hand in hand in dc. It’s not racist to point that out. [/quote]

WRONG. All low income in DC may be AA or Hispanic but not all Hispanic or AA are low income. PP ought to mean what’s she says and say what she means. Her comment was racist. Period. I get it that you and other PPs coming to her defense don’t understand. I deal with people like you every day. Regardless it was a racist comment. She and you should take this as a learning opportunity so a not to generalize about people and kids in the future. You live in DC. And whether you like it or not, there are minorities that live here, rich and poor. And no, you should  not let your dog poop at a private university campus.[/quote]

That’s not what I said but ok. [/quote]

What conclusion should one come to with this statement: “I think a lot of schools that are like 99% black/Latino face these issues.”

Why not just say “I think a lot of schools that are like 99% [b]low income[/b] face these issues.”[/quote]

THAT wasn’t me. You quoted my comment about race and poverty going hand in hand and inserted your assumption that I meant all black and Hispanic families are low income. You inserted that. It’s a fact that race and poverty go hand in hand in dc. No where did I say that it means ALL minority families are low income. That would be absurd. Please don’t quote someone and add extra to what they said with what you assume they meant. I was not the PP that said ““I think a lot of schools that are like 99% black/Latino face these issues.” Two different posters so take it up with that person directly and quote them. I stand by my statement that race and poverty go hand in hand in dc. [/quote]

I didn’t say it was you that said that. It was said period. Word for word. If you agree with that verbatim statement then you’re racist too. Period.[/quote]
