A school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, has suggested spending almost $500,000 on a program teaching Black Lives Matter.
The Milwaukee Public Schools 2016-2017 Superintendent’s Proposed Budget report for the Wisconsin Conservatory of Lifelong Learning shows $471,073 allocated for a partnership program with BLM.
On page 53 of the budget report, MPS says it is partnering with the Black Lives Matter organization "to develop a cultural studies curriculum and provide staff training on restorative practices to improve student attendance, academics, graduation rates and school culture through facilitation of meaningful dialogue and support on issues surrounding race and trauma faced in communities and schools."
This should also be posted in the "why society has gone to shite" thread

“No funding is going to any Black Lives Matter organization,” Tony Tagliavia, a spokesman for Milwaukee Public Schools told FoxNews.com in a statement. "The specific expenditures, which are also outlined in the budget proposal, are for three social studies teachers and staff development for other employees.”
The funding would also pay for a “cultural studies curriculum” which aims to “[ensure] that culturally responsive teaching practices are in place at all schools, enhancing the district vision for student participation in a wide range of after-school activities..."

Yes, also in original article. Didn't want to break the rules and post the whole thing. And that is what we call "crawfishing."

Well, lately there is no shortage of reasons.

What about white culture? Is there any funding to develop white cultural studies curriculum?

I have been to some pretty shitty places in my years, but none more shitty than Milwaukee. Had 2 buddies robbed on separate occasions on a weekend trip there to watch the Reds.

I do feel Black lives matter, just like Hispanic lives matter, just like white lives matter.
But everyone knows throwing money at a cultural problem will solve zero problems. The problem solving all will start from the homes and neighborhoods of the problems, not from outside sources.

Isn't it funny how it's the areas with the least amount of "diversity" that have the money left over to dedicate to bullshite like this?

I agree. I wish someone would tell the politicians that think a school voucher program is a good thing.

Prepare to be disappointed if you believe that number. According to the 2010 Census, it is 45% white (37% non-Hispanic white) and 40% black.
