[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]This is their conclusion: [quote]The conversations on DC Urban Moms illustrate what other research has also shown: When privileged parents choose, they tend to choose segregation[/quote] This is an extremely unfair characterization that completely misses the nuanced and complex reality. It is extremely disappointing to see such drivel presented as serious research. [/quote] I completely agree. They are knowingly confusing different types of segregation: economic and racial. Despite being strongly associated, you can’t write a decent scholarly article without defining which one you’re talking about and which one parents most care about. It’s a deliberate attempt to attract controversy and attention, by insinuating racism into the mix. [/quote] “It’s a deliberate attempt to attract controversy and attention, by insinuating racism into the mix” pretty much sums up the past few years, and most of 2020. [/quote]
