If the schools are bad in my area, am I allowed to create my own schools where I already live instead of moving elsewhere?
having personally lived through and experienced desegregation/integration, I can say with a pretty objective opinion, that desegregation it is 100% responsible for the current state of our public school system, other factors continue to impact it, but deseg, is what brought it here, my $.02

Question for the Pro-Segregationist Crowd
Why would black people move to northern and western states? Why would they move to Eastern Europe? I say this because in my experience black people are the ones for the most part segregate themselves.

The only calls for segregation I've seen nowadays have come from black folks. Should they move?
Yes they should. Black or white, let them leave.

I'm going to use the same terminology you use on people who say they dislike the US. Nobody is forcing you to stay in the Southern US. If the racial breakdown is not to your liking, you are free to move to Colorado, Washington, Idaho, Minnesota, Oregon, and anywhere else that is predominantly white. Why stop at the US, there are plenty of Eastern European countries that would gladly accept. You'll probably take a hit to quality of life in certain aspects, but that's a small price to pay. Edit: I'm saying that it is better to move to where the grass is greener than battle a pointless war with politicians who are too busy protecting THEIR positions over doing the right thing for the country.

Do you think there is any correlation to race and test scores?

There are some racial separatists, but they are few and far between and completely marginalized. I think what most people on this board would like is a black neighbor that has similar life habits as their white or asian neighbor. Not the habits and social pathologies that come from 80% of black children being born out of wedlock.
And as someone who has ALSO lived in predominantly white and predominantly Asian places, I can tell you that life just feels different when you are surrounded by successful people. Life here in Louisiana has a squalid feeling because there is so much social pathology. Crime, poverty, ignorance, blight etc. The vast majority of that is the social pathology that comes from the lack of black families.
Personally I'd like every American to succeed. White, black, Hispanic whatever. Everybody being good neighbors and making the country better. Observing the social contract. Not victimizing anyone. But blacks certainly don't get some kind of unique pass from reality because it hurts your feelings. And until the black family is rediscovered, the slide will just continue.

But what other choice did you expect after Civil Rights was passed.
Look, this isnt a stab toward you or anybody else on here, but we have to be totally honest. Segregation back then was primarily a tool used to keep Black people down. It was de jure segregation that played a large part in what created the civil rights movement (CRM) in the first place.
It's kind of hard to promote yourself as a free country, when your educational and other systems are completely opposite to the ideals your supposed to be founded upon. Another factor that's overlooked is that the CRM took place after WW2. This played a huge role as our veterans saw first hand what horrors heavy handed authoritarian governments could do.
That said, I think the better solution was to use a scholarship program. Minorities from bad neighborhoods could test into better school systems. This would create a better system.

didn't say I opposed it, I was just a kid, I actually looked forward to it, was raised in a family where racism was not tolerated, using a racial term in our house would get a pop across the mouth or arse, just wasn't allowed, my mother was a school teacher, just based my comment(opinion,) on having actually lived through the experience and seen the effect it had on the school system, that is all

Safe space type folks are really the only segregationists nowadays. Anyone else either has no voice so they don't matter anyway like whatever remains of the Klan, or are just a fricking loon anyway so why listen.

So, only offer scholarships to minorities? Do you mean "just black minorities"? Are Asian's minorities? What do "bad" neighborhoods" have to do with educational potential?
GTFO with all this "segregationist, oh poor minorities shite, this is America, Anyone willing to put in the work can be anything they choose to be. Notice I say choose, as it is a choice. Scholarships, good or bad neighborhoods, black or any other race all have a CHOICE. As long as your mentality remains some might as well stay in the plantation.

last week, took my kid to the Livingston DMV.
Sat in there for 3 hours. All of the black folk that came in scanned the area for other black folk and went to sit with them.
At the end of the 3 hours there was an entire corner of the room with every black person in the room all sitting together. Nobody gave them a bad vibe that they didn't want to be sat by. They just naturally chose to and I'm fine with that.
My kid was wondering why though.

I always love when people who have no experience with black folks insert their opinion and tell black folks what black folks SHOULD be doing.
What you see inside your small bubble in LA is not an indication of the whole.
