[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, they aren’t racist. Underrepresentation doesn’t make them racist, rather it is a symptom of deeper problems with equity in education. [/quote] This. The district's policy on access to the AP classes may be racist. That does not mean the classes themselves are, obviously. This is why DCPS has no barrier to taking any AP class you want or to taking the prereqs, plus a bunch of different way to get yourself on the path for math if you were behind (as those courses are obviously and importantly sequential).[/quote]
