[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gathering feedback on the thesis statement for your thought piece, OP? It is as it ever was. The rich seek exclusive/exclusionary clubs, including schools. It used to be that the rich wanted everyone to know how exclusive, especially those outside the bubble. The current fad is to pretend (1) they want their kids’ schools to be inclusive and diverse and (2) that those schools actually are inclusive and diverse. Neither is true. Paradox? A better word is hypocrisy. [/quote] NP. I think having pro-diversity values helps reduce overt racism, even if the rich still act classist. I'll settle for at least some benefit to society. Especially because I think class-focused behavior is harder to change given the American assumption that wealth is earned.[/quote]
