[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they touch on how school districts are drawn especially in NJ, NY and CT? People are very deliberate in how they choose where to lve based on school district. If you could dissolve that system, that would go a long way to redistributing resources. Yes, white parents will still try to mobilize resources, but at least poorer students wouldn't be concentrated in certain schools.[/quote] Dissolve it and replace it with what? Every system I've seen that went beyond a marginal change resulted in significant amounts of white flight. Driving the people with money out of your school system doesn't bode well in the long run.[/quote] Let's see what they do. FCPS promises radical change to its STEM school and at least one board member is determined to draw boundaries and compose schools based on race and income. Most of the rest of them backed away from this idea during the election. Maybe they will draw inspiration from current events and take it up again.[/quote] Racism to combat racism is a losing proposition. In order for people to stop treating others based on the color of their skin, we first have to have our government stop treating people differently based on the color of their skin. The race baiting that has occurred has set us back a generation. Implementing even MORE programs that would give benefits to people based on race will have a disastrous affect. [/quote] Sorry, but what benefits? Black neighborhoods are taxed at higher rates. Black people are more likely to be arrested and imprisoned, and then work essentially as slaves in prison labor. Even in preschool, black kids are punished more harshly and expelled at higher rates. Some of them end up on welfare- is that surprising? Oh and I'm not even liberal. I'm a conservative, sometimes Trump supporter and even to me, it is clear as day that the only people who are endless recipients of social benefits are white people. And that is weakening us as a nation, and will make us less powerful in the near future. [/quote]
