[quote=Anonymous]@13:00 (NP here) I think there is some racism there when FARMS is used as a euphemism for Black or Latino. So when someone says there's too many FARMS at the school. What they're really saying is that there's too many Black and Latino kids at a school for their liking. When FARMS is meant to mean one's SES only, then there's no racism, but because it can be used as a shorthand substitute for Black/Latino, it can be. It depends on the person using the term and how they view it.[/quote]
