[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh no, so many tired racists of being called racist![/quote]

Look I get it. Your mind is made up. You think MoCo is segregated and THE ONLY solution is busing. My mind is not made up and I’d like to hear what others have to say. You calling them racists and/or segregationists silences some people, just as those who booed or heckled at the meeting silenced people.  Both are power plays and not helpful if you want a solution people will buy into.

They need to be silenced. I am tired of white people privilege and narrative. I am tired of African Americans being told to get over it and it is their fault they are still poor and uneducated and can't afford a place in a better school. Same goes for Hispanic population. It is more their country than white peoples! None of the "get over narrative" has a spec of truth in it! Imagine if in 1600 you arrived here and you were shackled for the next 450 years? Even when you got your "freedom" white people would not provide buses for AA kids and did provide for white kids. Imagine schools teaching you(as recent California standard tried to put in) that only those AAs who didn't observe the societal norms of racial behavior got lunched! Oh, if only they obeyed, they would be fine! Now, imagine the whole society that has put negative images of AA males who are dangerous and women who speak their mind are called hysterical? Imagine walking into a store, and someone following you the whole time? Even though you earn more than the guard at the store? Racists need to shut up or get educated. AA people only got a chance to walk, to walk a few decades ago due to persistent racism in this country. And I am not even AA! So, quite frankly, white people in the U.S. need to start acknowledging that even those that claim are enlightened propagate racism and are racist. You are all in favor of no racism as long as your witness is not touched.[/quote]

Silenced?  Wow.

Then the African American parents who spoke at the meeting?  Watch the video before you stick your foot in your mouth again. [/quote]
