[quote=Anonymous]^ That "general you" is pretty broad. Pretty much everyone does this. That's why the better-off black families move out of DC to places like PG too, because they also don't want their kids mixed up with a statistically demonstrated higher incidence of violence, drugs, theft, teen pregnancy, et cetera. The only real question is, what do we actually do about it, toward dealing with the underlying causes. Things like busing or redistricting won't actually solve anything, that's just moving the issue around, the same "solution to pollution is dilution" mentality that leads to contaminated rivers. Moving a kid from an abusive household from school A to school B doesn't magically make him better. Putting some rich white kid in his school doesn't magically make him better either. What is far more likely to help is to provide robust, integrated wraparound services geared specifically toward breaking the cycles of multigenerational poverty.[/quote]
