[quote=Anonymous]My father (black man) grew up in rural southern VA. No white people in his town, no white people in any of his schools. After high school he joined the military. He had a successful military career (obviously this is a very white male dominated field and also a bit hostile towards blacks when he joined in 1970), he fell in love and married a white woman (my mother). He had a full rich life, despite the fact that he had very few interactions with white folks prior to joining the military. And I don't even think the environment at Banneker is as exclusive as I described here. So my point, I don't think black people that attend "black schools" (at any level, even college) are going to have a hard time navigating the "real world" because of it.[/quote]
