[quote=Anonymous]Asians are 100% discriminated against. There is no doubt that this is an issue. Lots of examples, historical and ongoing.

Attempts at increasing access to a Public school that serves the County so that the school reflects the County as a whole is not inherently Racist. Increasing representation of Blacks and Hispanic students, many of whom are lower income, means that the groups that represent the majority, in this case Asian students, will see a decline in their numbers. That said, the Asian population at TJ is still well above their percentage of the population in the County. The move to guaranteeing admission to the top students from every middle school in the County increased representation of underrepresented groups and diminished the number of students from other middle schools.

There are members of the School Board who are prejudiced against Asians if not racist.

Both statements are true. But that doesn't mean the attempt to insure that kids from across the County have an opportunity to attend an amazing school is, by definition, racist. [/quote]
