So, school educators have always pushed students to work hard and make god grades, now they don't?



Did you read what you quoted? Let me help you...

quote:

Thomas Jefferson spent over 35 years building its reputation as a premier high school. But it only took 12 Democratic members of the Fairfax County School Board only 12 minutes and 11 seconds on Tuesday night, October 6, during an online meeting to kill the school, eliminating its race-blind, merit-based admissions test.


There’s your answer.

Gotta be careful here. When kids don't succeed academically, it's not always because they're lazy or don't work hard. Sometimes they work hard to learn, but they just can't cut it.

A parent who sees their kid struggle with math problems every night will probably get pissed at the parent who says "well, your kid just isn't working hard enough."

The world needs ditch diggers and tradesmen too. People need to learn to admit the hard truths: not everyone is intelligent and will be high earning doctors or lawyers.

It blows my mind that black people aren’t enraged that they are being treated like they are too stupid to achieve a standard on their own so everyone else has to be dumbed down. I’d be livid if I was a black man.

I read a book by Thomas Sowell several years ago. He cited a study that looked at average lifetime income, education attainment, likelihood of incarceration among various races. There was virtually no difference amongst the kids raised in a two parent home.




I'm pretty sure I saw these statistics from him. 40% of single mother African American families lived in poverty.

Only 8% of two parent households in the African American community lived in poverty.

equality of outcome is retarded. It's impossible.

Progressives bitch bout education then do their best to destroy it. Next time they start talking about science, just roll your eyes. They hate it.

It really isn't that difficult to not live in poverty in America. A married couple willing to work can make a middle class income with a high school education.

California tried to legalize institutional racism again so that they could be racist against Asians. It's pretty incredible/sad that such a proposition even made it to a referendum and got 45% of the vote.

I'm saying that as one of the board's "liberal" posters.

This kills me too. Democrats treat black men and women like they’re completely inferior and incapable of achieving anything without their help.

Yet somehow they escape all criticism for it. It’s insane.

I'm black and I approve of this Asian message!!!

Now, I'm not going to be naïve and believe in certain circumstances and pockets of the country that racism or institutional racism doesn't exist. But for the vast majority, sometimes you need to look in the mirror and see what's holding you back. It's not the white man, black man, Asian man, Trump, Biden, Republicans, Democrats, or anyone else. More than likely, it's......


Y-O-U!!

Really? I don’t believe anybody told you that blacks’ influence on elections was reduced. It has always been very important. I think the point you missed was dimocratix aren’t motivated to go out of their way to help blacks after an election because, no matter how little dimocratix do for them, blacks will blindly and obediently return to the polls to vote Team Blue every election. These dimocratix would have to start believing they could lose the black bloc before they’ll actually do anything for black people.

Maybe not... this shite will likely push them more conservative. Let Progressives (aka black “victims” and their white guilt apologists) self destruct. They can’t help themselves from declaring war on everyone. Morons.
