Their take is funny. It’s basically “liberals are hypocrites”.[/quote]

I don’t doubt it. This particular case may be different but as Nikole Hannah Jones has pointed out, “blue” areas have some of the highest segregation in schools and (fairly well-off, white) liberal parents ALWAYS find 1,000 reasons to oppose plans to make schools less white/reflect area demographics whenever they are proposed.[/quote]

Nikole Hannah Jones is a massive hypocrite who almost certainly will send her kid to a private HS.  She did NOT send her daughter to her IB school. She sought out a better option that had better test scores. NHJ would never send her daughter to Miner (or EH for that matter). A total joke.

I know that Ivy Tower diversity crowd and not a single one sends their kids to a school like Miner. Or even to Maury.

BTW I send my kid to EH. And Maury actually reflects DC demographics. [/quote]

I remember reading her piece on choosing a school for her kid when we were doing the lottery, and it sound like their IB school actually was a school like Miner, but they found a school like Garrison or Amidon-Bowen. Well... yeah. If my IB school was Garrison or Amidon-Bowen, I'd be fine sending my kid there. But if my IB school is Miner, I'd want better for my kid. That doesn't make me racist, it makes me a good parent.[/quote]

No. The place she sent her kid was more like L-T. Diverse, but not a T1 and with solidly good test scores already. It was definitely not like A-B.[/quote]
