And though it wasn't directed at me, more money is spent in "white" schools. The term is generally used to describe the majority population, not every single student at the school. My high school had 1600 students: 7 of them were Hispanic, and perhaps 20 were black (all but one of the black students were bussed in from inner-city Boston). Would you call that a "mixed-race" school? Or is "white" a reasonable descriptor? And my school was quite well financed. |
you beat me to it.
Amazing that in this day in age, with information readily available, people STILL are ignorant, STILL in the dark about the reality of our country and the planet as a whole.
If a person doesnt even know about the inequalities present in our country when it comes to race, how the HELL are they going to know about the inequalties present on our planet, most of which is manufactured inequality and injustice.
Sometimes i think if conservatives were simply given all the facts, they too would become liberals. But when there facts have been "Rush" and "Hannity" approved it all becomes cloudy for them.
Just like the posters claim that white schools got more funding is "BS", simply amazing.
