[quote=Anonymous][quote] For example, it is not racist to embrace rigorous academic standards, even if leads to more black kids dropping out than non-black kids. It is not racist to discipline disruptive kids, even if more black kids are disciplined than non-black kids. Moreover, since most of the kids are black, any policy which results in disciplinary action will result in more black discipline cases. [/quote] It is, however, racist, very racist in fact, if there's a pattern in which black students are disproportionately disciplined, or drop out, and community members attribute it to rigorous standards rather than actually investigating the causes.
