NP. This is what it boils down to. I have not read the whole thread, but for everyone furious that black students are not well represented, please also be furious that elementary curriculums are NOT teaching black students, or any student, well enough to take advance courses. Any students who takes advanced courses must have tutors, classes, academic camps on the side. Or, happen to have parents who have the time, money to help advance their child’s knowledge base.

When young children don’t have enough knowledge they are at complete disadvantage their entire lives . I’m furious schools embrace soft “progressive” curriculums instead of knowledge rich curriculums that build a strong foundation in vocabulary, history, literature, sciences. It hurts all kids but especially Black children.

Chasing admissions at TJ is missing the problem.

Math Olympiad club at school with in person coaching in small groups. Mostly Indians, some Chinese and white kids, 0 or 1 blacks.
This is with open admission costing less than $50 for the year thru PTA.

We need to make sure that blacks value education more. Education has to be the primary focus. Sadly, we are a long way from that. I would like to see a marshall type plan that from day 1 of school makes the child and parent realize that education of the child is the most important component of raising the child.

So are you making an argument for quotas as TJ? Lowering the bar? Or what? Please explain.

And Asians aren't for whatever reason as big as other races and thus are handicapped in sports like football and basketball where size can be an advantage. How exactly do you level the playing field for everything across all races and genders?

They even the playing field by trying to join in the support of white supremacy. The white Supremacists often will accept them more so than any other race. They can claim POC and make a good boot lick/buffer class.

Umm.. We don't think like that dude. Don't have to. The "Massa" mindset may be ingrained in your psyche so all you can think of is "who is my master?". We don't. Our operating assumption is that everyone else is, at best, equal to us. That's why, we end up gaining the upper hand whereever we go (without stealing or violence BTW). Even in places where some of us were taken as slaves (e.g. Africa, carribean, etc.). In one generation in the US, we pretty much run Silicon Valley. It's all in the head brother. Try it.

Yeah right, I’ve been around Asians and I know better and you control Silicon Valley. You may be entrusted to do certain things for white mommy and daddy because they understand how badly you want their acceptance.

Butt-hurt you are not "accepted"? Try working hard sometimes rather than steal and burn. Based on your posts, you don't know sh*t about SV.

I'm not sure where you are getting this from. Please provide a link. If you are referring to IQ, the test, which is not foolproof and is biased in favor of those with an education, then you may be correct. If you are referring to actual intelligence, you are wrong. Intelligence is equally distributed across all races. It's possible that the tails of the peak is slightly higher for a tested population but not in any significant way.

If your true intent is actually helping Black children, I'd refrain from repeating what you just said. Most people assume IQ is a true representation of raw intelligence when it is not and false statements like these are of zero help.

Please provide a link to your support as well for the proposition that intelligence is equally distributed across all races. That is a critical point.

mm.. Doesn't work like that. The baseline assumption is that every group has similar distribution of intelligence because there are extremely smart and extremely stupid people in all groups. You are proposing that's not the case and hence my request for evidence.

DP, but here you go.
