[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's funny about these performative equity folks is that they purport to speak for black and low-SES students but give zero consideration to the black and low-SES students who are provided a first class education at BASIS. These people don't care about equity or black kids or low SES families, they care about a dumb talk track and scoring SJW points.  [/quote]

I don't think it's inconsistent to say that 1) Basis provides a generally better education than any DC charters or DCPS schools (which I agree with, which is why I send my kids there), and 2) the share of lower SES students, Black students, and Hispanic students at the school is way lower than in the DC public school pool, suggesting that the school could improve its outreach and retention of those groups, so that more of those kids could access that "first class education". I don't expect the Basis population to exactly represent the overall DC population, given the inequitable K-4 preparation, but it certainly could be closer.[/quote]
