Her idea of reading is... “ I B C U 2da “
How would you write I B C U 2Day in cursive?
Way back in the 70s a black woman who had just “graduated” from Arkansas A,M & N applied for a teaching job at a high school in Little Rock. It was pointed out to her that she was two credits shy of a degree. Three days later she showed up with the two credits added to her transcript. This has been going on for decades.
When schools were integrated the entire system was dumbed down to make things “equal”. My idea back then, and I was only in my teens, was integrate the 1st grade. In 12 years the school system would be completely integrated and all would have had the exact same chance to learn. But they wouldn’t neccessarily have had the same capabilities.
