[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we are talking apples and oranges. With regard to latinos, I think it will be the same as with other immigrants, who have historically always closed the achievement gap within a generation to become integrated and successful. With the AA community, however, it's been multi-generational. Yes, a fundamental paradigm shift in AA culture is needed.[/quote] Also true of Native Americans (the achievement gap problem); however, you don't hear much about NAs as a group become they are not statistically significant as a group/population in most states. Yes, there are cultural issues just like AAs but there is also structural problems and hurdles that have existed for generations for both populations that were not faced by immigrants.[/quote] Native American achievement is not an issue in the Washington DC area.[/quote]
