[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, bringing up racist tropes while discussing the accessibility of STEM programs is hilarious. [/quote] Yes, I see this all the time in the TJ threads. I have tried to point it out when it happens. Somebody thinks it’s very clever to refer to basketball/sneakers when we’re discussing fairness in the TJ application process. [/quote] Only racists see it that way. Rest of us understand that different families have different priorities, some spend on basketball and others on academic enrichment, and few others like us on both. [/quote] But it is odd to frequently point to the NBA, rec/HS basketball, and sneakers on the TJ threads. It’s almost as though the posters want us to think about a particular identity group every time they make these comparisons… [/quote]
