I write on my little blog that no one reads when I have had it with the stupidity of this world and my fellow humans. Here, I can say what I want. NO PC shit here.
This article intimates that the public schools are at fault. That they are prejudiced against black and hispanic students. Well, NO. I do subscribe to stereotypes. They define the majority or a large part of a certain population. To say EVERYONE in that population fits the stereotype is stupid. I am sure there are many bad asian students and good black students, etc. However, as groups, asian and euro parents drive their children harder, value education over entertainment more and spend more of their resources and at times have more resources to devote to their children's education. If the populations of blacks and latinos lag behind the asians and the euros in these elite schools, why not look at the population? How can these groups improve their numbers in good schools? But this kind of affirmative action bullshit, is what gets people like Trump elected. Are black and hispanic children born stupider than the asians and the euros, no. Are their talents nurtured as well as the two latter groups, most probably not. First look should be at the parents.
