[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meh, I lean far more center than left, and this doesn’t bother me.   It’s sort of like HBCU’s.  I think it’s a good thing they exist.  It’s about building community for these kids.  It’s an extra.  I don’t see the issue.  [/quote]

HBCUs are open to everyone. [/quote]

As are our schools.  But this is an extracurricular activity geared to one audience. I don’t see the big deal.  [/quote]

An extracurricular activity sponsored and promoted by a publicly-funded institution with an explicit invitation only to certain races is not “open to everyone.” Just to be clear. [/quote]

It is concerning and it is illegal.  But now is not the time.[/quote]

Just to be explicitly clear anyone can go but white kids aren’t the target. If your child doesn’t have autism would they go to a workshop about autism in the workforce? Which DCPS schools do. If you aren’t autistic you could go but know you’re not the target.

Stop acting like whiteness is being excluded and targeted, it’s very telling and disgusting. [/quote]

Thanks PP. [/quote]
