Jason Jones is not only a former "correspondent" for the left-wing Daily Show, he is also husband to Samantha Bee, one of the leftist leaders of the so-called Resistance Movement against President Trump. Oh, and Jones doesn’t want the city of New York to move his children's school to a location that would make it more accessible to poor, black kids.

Both Samantha Bee and Jason Jones are wealthy and very white.

According to the Civil Rights Project, New York is not the Liberal Utopia it is advertised to be, at least if you are not white and wealthy. Just like when Democrats ran the South, Democrat-run New York has managed to create the most racially-segregated schools in the country:

New York has the most segregated schools in the country: in 2009, black and Latino students in the state had the highest concentration in intensely-segregated public schools (less than 10% white enrollment), the lowest exposure to white students, and the most uneven distribution with white students across schools. Heavily impacting these state rankings is New York City, home to the largest and one of the most segregated public school systems in the nation.

Slate reports that one of the reasons for this is that in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, the most left-wing part of this left-wing state, there is never-ending resistance — if you'll pardon the use of that word — to opening up predominantly-white schools to under-privileged, minority students.

read this, this morning. it kind of leaps to that clickbait title, but did you read the Salon article it's based on?

LINK

quote:

Bill de Blasio, the great white hope of progressivism when he was elected—the guy who’s married to a black woman, after all—has stumbled when it comes to integrating schools, on the Upper West Side and elsewhere. From the Chalkbeat story:

quote:

The mayor has expressed support for school diversity, but he also has said the city must respect parents’ real-estate investments (a statement that at least one P.S. 452 parent repeated this week), while Chancellor Carmen Fariña has warned against forcing integration “down people’s throats.”



if that is true...

It's a copy-and-paste of the article's title.

This is at the point where its pretty much not news anymore. Leftists really want diversity as long as they don't have to be a part of it. They enjoy making others a part of it because it makes them feel good inside, but they don't actually want to live in it, unless they are in a trendy hipster phase where they like to dress in goodwill clothes and play the banjo in the French Quarter, LARPing that its 1968 and they're leading the revolution.

Remember the riots in Boston when they started busing students? The North gets a free pass while the South is called out for racism and bigotry. Some of the worst race riots in the country happened in Chicago, Detroit and Boston. The liberals call out conservatives publicly for doing the exact same things they do.

It's all about lip service. You shouldn't say what you feel/think. Say what everybody wants to hear, and then do the opposite.

it's certainly a leap and a clickbait title, BUT

from Salon:

quote:

One P.S. 452 parent speaking out against the move is comedian and former Daily Show correspondent Jason Jones, who’s married to Samantha Bee. "To portray any opposition as classist or racist is as bad as it can get," Jones told WNYC. And elsewhere: "We are not divided,” he said at a public hearing about the proposal, “we are absolutely united in wanting what's best for our children," then encouraged fellow parents not to talk to the press about the controversy.


a better title would be something along the lines of, "liberal famous person advises people not to talk about their positions out of fear of being labeled racists". i don't think there is any doubt Jones/Bee are against moving the school (which would increase poor/minority populations in the school), so the title is technically correct

Samantha Bee's husband is not only fighting this move, the former correspondent is — get this — urging parents who agree with him not to talk to the media:
