The influx of so many Latino immigrants who had little or no education. In addition the total lack of respect for teachers and education in general by our black education. This caused millions to be poured into keeping up test scores among our minority population. It’s not politically correct to say all of this but from someone who has seen it happen up close it’s the truth.[/quote]

Why do bigots so often describe bigotry as "the truth"? When directed towards others, that is.[/quote]

Truth, sometimes, is hard to face. [/quote]

It’s an objective fact that most Latino immigrants who arrive in MCPS have received a limited education and have parents who were poorly educated as well. You go off the rails in claiming the black population has a “total lack or respect for teachers and education.”  If anything, white teachers and educators historically displayed a total lack of respect for black students, and of course this did not go unnoticed.

When we start treating all kids as worthy of respect, and meet them where they are, we will make progress.  Instead, we have far too many whites and Asians who simply want to preserve their own privilege and find it convenient to denigrate black and brown kids to advance that goal. Shame on you.

Asian privilege?!  That’s the first time I’ve heard of that.

What is Asian privilege?  Lots of Asians I know come from incredibly poor backgrounds or were refugees from Vietnam, etc.  [/quote]

DP. There’s model minority stereotype social privilege. In fact, many Asian children suffer from the assumption school will be easy for them. [/quote]
