2) Me sending my kids to Eastern is not going to give all kids the things I want for my kids, it's just going to be a bad experience for my kids. [b]And if a big group of white parents decided to get together and send their kids there, the same people who criticize us for not doing that would now be criticizing us for that.[/b]

It is [i]fascinating[/i] that your first stab at how the school might be improved consists of a big group of white parents sending their kids there all together.

I mean, it works if, in your heart of hearts, you think the ways the school is falling short are related to it being predominantly black, and/or if you are (and think your kids will be) uncomfortable in a predominantly black space. But that's what y'all are here arguing that you do not think.[/quote]

This was suggested upthread by a PP agreeing with the long Banneker PP: Seriously, why haven’t a group of 10-20 families joined together to commit to Banneker the same way they did to Hardy 5 years ago?

Do you have the same comment on that post?
