Oddly, much of the push against desegregation comes from people of color(white adjacent) who haven’t developed the filter yet.
Dems are hypocrites.
The OK for thee but not for me crowd.
Wait, Howard County is rich now? It used to be farming.
Evil leftists clinging to their NIMBY ways.
Good enough for thee, but not for me.
Sounds like they better get used to it.
The first step should be to mandate that All Public Employee’s in the State support the Public School System by making it a Term of Employment that their offspring ALL Attend their Local Public School.
While this may not apply to all blacks as a general statement this is true. If blacks insist on being 'African American' and seeking separate political representation, social groups and business groups then they are fair game for collective criticism.
To the left their theories are all fair until their ox gets gored.
It’s perfectly acceptable to say Asians (especially Koreans) value education more than westerners (and it’s true), but to say whites value education more than blacks is racist.
Wealthy white liberals in Maryland don’t sent their offspring to private schools?
These must be the bourgeois, wannabe liberals attending public schools.
What was said that isn’t true?
My mother moved rather than be exposed to busing any more. She moved because her first son was getting beat up at a majority black school. I’m glad she did because I was scared I was going to be next.
I think all the advocates of busing should be bused to the most hard core crime ridden part of their city and made to work there .

Speak to any teacher who is honest.
As others have mentioned there is a cultural divide among blacks and whites with importance to education. Blacks have a terrible gangsta hip hop, no respect to authority culture that is ingrained in them, even the wealthier ones.
Another group of liberals is getting mugged by reality. Howard County is full of people who moved there in search of a good school district and to avoid urban crime. It is not fair to call this white flight, because these people are not racist; they would be happy to live next door to middle and upper middle class black people who share their values and lifestyles. But they want no part of the urban underclass, black or Hispanic. In Maryland, however, you can run but you can’t hide. These folks bought their suburban McMansions and endure brutal commutes, only to find that their government is intent on importing the very problems they were fleeing in the first place.
Embrace the suck.
“Slavery ended 400 years ago” - Yikes!
From the article: At a time when schools across the country are slipping toward resegregation
Not just schools. Neighborhoods are becoming less integrated by choice. The trend among blacks is to move back to black areas.
