[quote=Anonymous]I read the Post article about the speech and it sounds like he was attempting to describe how others see SE DC kids, not trying to stereotype them himself... As an aside, as the parent of an incoming pre-K student in DCPS, this type of story makes me wary of being involved in my son's new school. I've seen it firsthand on the listserv: everyone is waiting to pounce on anything that someone somewhere could theoretically construe as potentially racist. No one will give you the benefit of the doubt or try to figure out what you intended--it absolutely must be the worst possible interpretation and it must be proclaimed to the entire school that you are a racist. Better to lay low, not get involved, and not risk the wrath of the mob...[/quote]
