[quote=Anonymous]The vast majority of Whitman/W families are overwhelmingly liberal when it comes to embracing the differences of others. They may be a little tone deaf, or lacking empathy, but very few W families make judgments based on race or other different identities. Other schools in the county - not so much. I have seen students hurl racial insults at Asian building service workers at a school in Germantown. I’ve seen LGBT kids be hideously tortured at a school in Olney. Black vs Hispanic group arguments break out in many schools throughout the county. Let’s not even start on Damascus or Poolesville. Racial and other injustice runs rampant all over Montgomery County. It’s not concentrated (or even particularly worse) in W areas. Yes, those communities have some growing to do but to continually blame them for enabling racism is a little detached from reality.
