[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm done with all of you. Just do me the courtesy of taking those MLK posters off your houses. [/quote]

"We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools."[/quote]

But only learn to live together if my child's school has a certain % or above of not poor kids.

[b]If not, then I'll just move to the suburbs and learn to live with people that look like me.[/b] [/quote]

No-- it's "if not then I'll just move to the burbs and learn to live with people who make as much money as me."

Why is this so hard to accept?[/quote]

It's hard to accept because I'm actually minimally educated in the history of race in this country, and so I know that the intersection between race an "people who make as much money as me" is not accidental or random, but rather due to a history of entrenched racism.  [/quote]

Yo idiot with an ax to grind why don't you check in with all the middle and upper middle class blacks who left DC when it was chocolate city.  Are they racist too because they didn't want to associate with the riffraff

So then all rich people are racist? Gotcha.[/quote]

No.  The point is, you don't get a pass from racism by claiming "all I want to do is be around people of my same SES level."[/quote]

You are really trying to stretch this. All the UMC black people have the same concerns and flock to the same schools as well.

But whatever- if you want to label my choice to put my child's education ahead of solving race relations in this country, then yes. I am a racist.[/quote]
