Oh swell. More race baiting. Just what America doesn’t need.
This isn’t surprising. I had a (white) friend in a “mixed” neighborhood who was good friends with his black neighbor on the street behind him. The neighbor eventually moved (because of the black people in his neighborhood) to a suburb of Dallas which had a high black population. She was unhappy, saying it was “too black” and wanted to move elsewhere again. It was intra-race “racism,” with a good basis.
THIS was allowed on Yahoo??? Shocking.
I hope she is prepared for the destruction coming her way. The democrat party has vicious slave catchers for the uppity blacks who dare leave the plantation.
why??? i guess she actually wanted to learn something...
She sure is a self avowed Racist isn’t she? Maybe she should be visited by CPS and have her child removed from the home for this racist hate crime against her child
The article is by the boy, who is autistic. His mom is an ex-teacher.
I was somewhat saddened when, near the end, the young man wrote:
My African-American peers and I want to be educated by teachers who look like us.He's imbibed too much of the black separatist crap. He should have learned from his new experiences to be more colorblind.We want to hear their stories. We want to hear how they made it to college. If they go, maybe we can go, too. Tell us about African-American fraternities and sororities, dorms and the fun times they had so we know that college isn’t just boring hard work. We want to hear about their mistakes, so we learn from them.
That was a disappointing conclusion to his otherwise fine story.
My goal is not to criticize but to remind them that their students need them. We want them to care about us. Some of their students will only care when they do. We are waiting for them.
The “secret” is that learning is not about money or even good teaching. A teacher is largely a guide, nothing more. Motivated students largely teach themselves.
Where is race baiting????
That was a disappointing conclusion to his otherwise fine story.
I apologize...I only read the excerpt...He probably exhibited race baiting on down in the story...
Yeah, but I’ll bet she still votes for O’bama. I’ll bet she still uses her race to gain the advantage over more deserving Whites and Asians.
In the meantime, schools in Minneapolistan want to fire white teachers who have experience, seniority and more intelligence than black teachers.
Because... shut up you racist.
Exactly.
It’s a tacit admission by blacks that they also see themselves as incapable of being as successful as white people.
Blacks will never be able to break out of what is holding them down unless they just get the whole race thing out of it and focus on individual character and integrity without worrying about skin color.
Holding onto victim mentality never gives anyone a boost.
That’s a good point. Maybe he felt compelled to add that crap in an otherwise fine essay. He could be tossing the barking moonbats a bone.
“A teacher is largely a guide, nothing more. Motivated students largely teach themselves.”
This is one of the simplest yet most profound statements I have read on Free Republic. Kudos.
Bingo! In my sophomore year in high school I weighed continuing in the band vs transferring to a chemistry class I needed to attend UCSD. It was 9 weeks into the school year. My dad said I needed to buckle down and catch up. It took 3 1/2 weeks to read the classroom textbook and work every exercise. Easy A. Attending UCSD was more important to me than continuing with the band.
Thanks for the correction.
He’s also autistic, which sadly makes him easier to manipulate and indoctrinate.
