[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really bothers me that people feel sending their kids to school with minorities is a “social experiment.” This all sounds like the same arguments from school integration. These are people we are talking about. They might be poor but they’re still people who are trying to get their kids through school too.[/quote]

Agree! Our kids schoolmates and fellow DCPS students are their future fellow citizens. Can’t we try to make this country work instead of pretending it already does? The people who say they won’t integrate their kids (aka ‘won’t put them on the front lines’) are conservative and racist. Individually, even if they don’t understand it, and collectively clearly so, and they should not be able to ignore it. Cut the social just warrior vocabulary crap. No need for calling people snowflakes or being a wimp yourself. Step up and own the situation we are in instead of retreating into delusions. This is our kids’ future.   [/quote]

I am a liberal and would not be so comfortable calling out conservatives as the racists. I have encountered many racist liberals but their racism is just disguised as condescending attitudes towards race. This seems to be the two modes of racism: outright racism or condescending/patronizing racism IMO, my white persona observations. It is infuriating.[/quote]
