Oh, ok. If you don't like the works of scholars like Charles Murray on the subject of race, maybe you'd be better off at the University of Wisconsin and audit their " the problem with whiteness' course. I'm sure that's just the kind of academic excellence your looking for.
Are you going to educate those students then or give in to your feelings about genetic predisposition at birth ? Why do you think some Americans don't count, and you can disown them ? And why are you so sure that skin colour is more highly correlated to education results then income levels or neighborhood or school resources ? Do you really have to make the lead on these topics skin colour ?
If america is inherently racist, and the whole reason why black people in America are suffering is because of some deep seeded racism in america, why is it that Black and brown immigrants who come here drastically outperform black people who were born and raised in america? If it has nothing to do with the perverse culture of liberals, if its all about race why does a person who comes here from a totally different country, starting the game with nothing at all and having to learn to fit into a new culture drastically outperform black people who have lived here without slavery or jim crow laws for decades. At what point do liberals have the shoulder the blame for the perverse culture they have created instead of pointing fingers?
See, this is about the point where you start to go off the deep end. Where was it again I said that some American's didn't count, or that they should be disowned? Where was it I said that skin color was highly correlated to education results? All I said was the following: it just so happens that statistically speaking, higher percentages of people of color live in lower income, urban environments. Somehow that means that I am saying skin color means bad education results and is, of course according to you, racist.
Id love for one of you liberals to explain this to me, how are black immigrants who come from countries far less "priviledged" than us, somehow drastically outperforming native born blacks, and even whites for that matter. New Study Reveals Immigrant Blacks Outpace Native Blacks and Whites in Selective College Enrollment ..........."Moreover, the report indicates that selective colleges enroll nearly four times as many Black immigrants, at 9.2 percent, than native-born Blacks, at 2.4 percent, and Whites, at 7.3 percent.".......... http://diverseeducation.com/article/12419/
He may have gotten us confused. You didn't say it, but I basically did. Stats back me up. Actually, I agree with Nine on one thing. It is not strictly race. I have little doubt that a good percentage of blacks could perform at white averages in school. The fact that they don't is a result of a devil's brew of a culture that doesn't value education or is even hostile to it, dysfunctional home lives and schools where learning is disrupted by thugs who cannot be suspended.
America has far more racial discord then Canada does. Canada just went ahead and set decent education standards for ALL students. Skin colour was never a topic. Language skills and poverty was. As a nation, you need to educate ALL students. You can put your head in the sand and pretend that posters weren't on here suggesting quite seriously to deport black American citizens to Africa, but they were. You can pretend that people weren't saying that skin colour is highly correlated to education results, but they were. You can pretend that your example doesn't purposely choose not to count some Americans from the results, based on skin colour, but that's exactly what was posted. We can argue forever about what is racist or not, but you aren't helping by leading with skin colour.
I was referring to the discussions you had with gwb. No where, at any point, was he talking about deporting black American citizens to Africa. At all. End of story. You're just pissed that you've been outed as a race hustler.
