racism in education

[Scrapheap]

If you think this is bad, have you heard about the Hispanic magnet school in L.A.?? They only teach in Spanish, AND they teach in history class that the Southwest U.S. is the rightfull territory of Mexico. There's also rumors that Latino supremacy is being taught there as well. This all of course, is paid for by the American taxpayer. 

Really? Is it even legal for them to do that?

Yes and no, they can have a school for Hispanic studies and teach in Spanish ( For the porposes of helping new imigrants) but they've corrupted the school and have kept it a secret untill a few months ago when a local news station did an expose on thier activities. I'm sure McJ remembers hearing about it.

It was chanell 4 that broke the story. I'll have to do some digging to get the link. (I'm not so good at finding these kinds of things)

that would be NBC, Los Angeles, for someone who is adept at searching for this type of stuff.

What's Arnold planning to do about it?

I hope the mexicans do win their el territory back against loco gringos. God bless Batallon San Patricio.

did you know that the standard of living for a black person (living on the dole; welfare), here in america, is exponentially greater than their distant relatives working hard, in africa today.

i wonder if the black people here would rather trade their history in america and much of europe to live like the typical person in africa lives today.

this is just conjecture, i am not espousing racist drivel.

What were you trying to prove with it?

[Thagomizer]

Africans actually dislike American blacks. There's no special connection to any of the cultures on the good ol' ancestral continent. My African American Literature professor told me a poignant story about the time he briefly visited Africa, thinking he was going "home", and most of the people there hated him for being a sheltered American.

Despite what we call them, African Americans are about as American as you can get.

[Litigious]

The only blacks living outside Africa who have some connections whatsoever with their old culture might be the Haitians. Black American "culture" is merely a sub-culture of the same culture as the white Americans have.

bump!

There should be an I^2 for NTs.

I say fuck racism. Can we not just forget it? Its irrelevant, and its bullshit. All this crap was done by people who aren't even alive anymore anyway! Who gives a flying fuck?

It isn't irrelevant or bullshit.

[RageBeoulve]

Yeah it is. It happened a long time ago, and nobody our age did it, so why should we care? Lets all just go have a beer! 

[Binty]

We should care because it's still there, just not as out in the open as it used to be. 

I love it when straight white males bitch about how affirmative action is no longer needed.
