Actually TJ's new policy hurts black people in the long run.
Definitely going to have to show your work on that one. Start by talking about how access to college opportunities has harmed Black folks.
You know why. Just doesn't suit your narrative and self-interests.
Because they need to know their place. TJ is reserved for their betters
Nope. Wrong. The kids will do fine at TJ. They have mostly richer more involved black parents. It is just that it doesn't improve the community overall as politicians are just using a few kids to claim victory when the bigger problem is building the base/pipeline and improving standards - look at the statistics on high school math/language metrics. And white folks just displaced some pesky Asians and are slapping each other on the back.
Focus should be on helping the entire Black community. Not just pushing a few richer, privileged black people and claiming false victory.
Amen.
Seems like the Supreme Court is not that popular anymore among TJ anti-Asian progressives.
There are far, FAR more anti-Asian conservatives than anti-Asian progressives.
Citation?
Which party runs around with tiki torches and swastikas again?
Exactly. These people are willing to side with folks who want to return us to the Jim Crow era and burn down our democratic institutions all to save them a few theoretical percentage points in admissions to elite schools.
It's more than TJ, it is not acceptable for elected SB members to mock and openly discriminate against Asians and set out to reduce Asian numbers. Politicians openly making statements and taking actions against a racial minority group in a mocking/racist way is never acceptable.
You will never understand why Asians are upset if you keep saying - why are they so rabid about TJ.
Two problems with this:
1) TJ even after the changes is >50% Asian
2) Selection is race blind.
+1
It was done in a shitty way but it was a step in the right direction.
If TJ is a problem that can't be fixed then it should just go away.
Being racist is never a step in the right direction. There was nothing wrong with TJ to fix. Lack of academic achievement by certain student demographic groups is not a problem caused by TJ.
The result is a step in the right direction.
There was much wrong with TJ to anyone who actually cared about racism instead of opportunistically shrieking about it in bad faith.

Race isn't a factor or known by admissions and Asians are the largest cohort at TJ. So yes, it sounds like there's nothing to complain about.

If you went back to a few years previous, you would see significantly higher numbers of students who had dropped out during the school year - and you're still only talking about a little bit over 2%.
And with respect to math level, there are two significant issues here:
1) the text says, "most freshmen had completed Geometry. That changed." No it didn't. Let's say that number is, what, 135 or so based on the graph? You're still talking about over 75% of the class having taken Geometry already, which is "most" by any definition of the word.
2) Ten years ago, the number of students taking Geometry at TJ was approximately the same as it is now, and the school was doing just fine. Twenty years ago, it was probably three times as many.
The number of students who were prepared for the tougher classes has gone up over twenty years. If you go another 20 years prior, even taking algebra 1 in middle school was not common.
You're right, but the point many seem to be making is that the school will somehow suffer for there being slightly fewer kids in the most advanced math courses. And that's simply not true. The school was fine when the vast majority of students entered in Geometry and it will still be fine now that about a quarter of them are. Indeed it might be a healthier environment because of the lack of emphasis on hyper-acceleration and the smaller number of students who have gaps in their understanding through that advancement.

There was another book, I think by a pair of writers, that talked about mismatch theory. It might have called Mismatch, but perhaps I am confusing it with The Shape of the River.

Harry Jackson has returned to the chat, folks. Just further proof to be shown that there is a lot of money to be made in being Black and telling everyone that Black people don't experience racism.
