[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My take away is that large percentages African American and more poor families are self selecting into charters. So those around DCUM who argue that charters are elitist and a bastion for racist white families can now shut up.[/quote] That's not a point we're making about charters in general. There are simply some that have erected barriers (intentionally or unintentionally) that end up with higher-SES populations (rabid DCUM charter cheerleading parents). These charters got a lot of buzz here, but they're also the ones undermining some DCPS's in gentrifying neighborhoods from getting a toehold on neighborhood kids.[/quote]
