[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've found that in schools where about > half of student body are one race, racist incidents are more likely to happen. In those areas, I hear ignorant comments about other races with much greater frequency than in more diverse schools.

A possible solution is to diversify the schools so that no race represents more than about 40% of the student body.[/quote]

Oh please do tell how you have "found" this out.  This definitely seems like a rigorous analysis upon which to drive social policy.[/quote]

[b]It's obvious when you consider the regularity and frequency with which these incidents occur at the W's[/b]. Not only that but the more memorable and outrageous incidents like kids in blackface or the N* word cards that show this complete lack of empathy. It isn't by chance these things always happen the segregated schools.[/quote]

Not all of the W schools.

These incidents haven't been occurring at WJ, but it's also by far the most diverse out of the 3 "W" schools in Bethesda/Potomac (Walter Johnson, Walt Whitman, Winston Churchill).

Although... if you ask the Whitman parents on this board, WJ [i]barely[/i] qualifies as being worthy of inclusion in the "W" schools, lol.
