"Poverty and other socioeconomic factors may explain some of the disparity"

Or the disparity may explain poverty.

In the forty's and early fifties, black enclaves had married men, stable families, church going people. Stable enclaves, with very low crime. Proud families, working hard, rising up.

Then came the liberal BS. Ruined the close knit communities.

I guess the answer is to suspend more white arbitrarily?

No more calls, please. We have a WINNER!

Grossly politically incorrect, of course. One is not even allowed to consider such a possibility in polite society.

That is sad but true. It has come to the point in our society where one dare not mention certain truths lest they be condemned as being rude, crude and raciest.

Cultural differences between white teachers and black students can lead to misinterpretation. Black students talking back to teachers may not be a sign of disrespect, says diversity consultant Tim Wise, but can show engagement, as when churchgoers respond to ministers.

It's official... I have reached the physical limitations of eyes-rolling-back-in-head.

One of the dumbest things black women ever did was to listen to the feminists and the hippies in the 60s

Sing Out, Sister! You are so right, sooooo right. Soooooooo right....

When asked why there were problems in Georgia's prison system, Governor Lester Maddox replied, "We need a better class of prisoners."

Great quote.

The "thing" isn't black and white to the degree mentioned here. The focus should be on those suspended as to whether or not they:

1. Come from a single parent household or guardianship (grandmother, aunt, etc.)
2. Are on public assistance in terms of free lunch.

Learning to respect others starts at home. Follow that trail to school.

Peace.
