He could say the same thing about generations of poor whites living here in the Ozarks.

Offendedness trumps truth in this crazy nutty country.

[bravo whiskey]

the truth hurts.

What kind of punishment should these missing fathers face . . . ? Kudos to the prof for actually daring to be pro-family.

[Scoutmaster]

This is nothing new for Lino - one of the nation's most notable conservative law school professors. He's been a fixture at UT Law School since the 1960s. He had to withdraw his nomination by Reagan for the Fifth Circuit because of his writings on desegregation through forced busing.

He's made similar comments for decades.

UT Professor: Black (& Latino) Students Failing Because They Are Raised by Poor Single Women AND PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Closer to the truth. The kids spend more daylight hours in school than they do with their moms. Guess where those teachers were taught, PROFESSOR?

Sheesh.

[ßuddaßudd]

black and Hispanic students are failing academically
Maybe they arent that smart to begin with and had no business being in college . . ?

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

The professor is following the standard intellectual ideology that poor black performance on standard tests are due to environmental factors. Nonsense! The ultimate causal factors are neurologically based: low intelligence and poor impulse control.

Neuroscience is the area where people should look for solutions to poor black academic and life performance.

This is a rare. An academic telling a hard truth. Usually political correctness obscures the truth. Political correctness has become customary in this country with most public discussions. Politically correct speakers are spewing nonsense and if they actually believe what they say, they are dangerous fools.

I call it being lazy. Passing a class is all because of individual effort. Sure, others will influence, but ultimately, you must take ownership of your grades. Of course, this fly in the face of more government, so nothing will change for these kids.

He said: 'They have a culture that seems not to encourage achievement.

For years I've heard the derisive term 'acting White" directed toward a minority member achieving some positive distinction, some positive academic success, by 'breaking the cycle'.

[Mr. K]

How about they are failing because stupid people are breeding more stupid children, and being paid to sit on their asses with welfare

The movice IDIOCRACY was a documentary, not a comedy

[Responsibility2nd]

A professor at the University of Texas has sparked outrage by claiming black and Hispanic students are failing academically because they have been raised in single parent homes usually by females.

 

 

 

What is amusing is looking at the liberal reaction to a fundament truth. It's like turning on the light at night and watching the cockroaches scatter.

Occasionally, very occasionally, a lib arts type “professor” will demonstrate above average IQ. (And yup, law is most certainly a lib art...’cuz it’s not even remotely connected to something solid like science.)

Kudos, prof.

[SaraJohnson]

It’s the race hustlers’ liberal welfare cultural thing even more that single parenthood, which is often a result of the ghetto race thug culture. Act “white” (which in reality is not colored white) rather than act stupid, slut, thug zombie (which is multicolered, too.)

That’s racist!
