Priority for Students of Color in returning to public K-12 school
Philip Greenspun’s Weblog ^ | Philip Greenspun

Posted on 07/10/2020 5:09:07 PM PDT by karpov

From the Educrats in Washington State: Reopening Washington Schools 2020 District Planning Guide. The phrase “students of color” occurs six times.

Good news for Rachel Dolezal: white students will be home driving parents crazy while “students of color” will enjoy in-person instruction and socializing with other students.

If that isn’t specific enough, “Prioritize face-to-face service for students that are most impacted by the loss of in-person services, including: … Students of color”

(“intersectionality” is involved, which presumably is a positive for the job market for PhDs in comparative victimhood)

I wonder if this is another good example of what Sweden has gained by just giving the finger to the coronavirus. Sweden isn’t pitting families of different skin colors against each other in competing for scarce slots in public schools.

Also, is this another example of a Constitutional right that Americans have lost due to the governor-declared emergencies? The Fourteenth Amendment was used to require school integration because of the Equal Protection Clause. How can states re-segregate their schools in light of the Supreme Court’s interpretation of this clause?

The educrats would be fired if they prioritized returning white students to school. They should be fired for this, too.

What kind of stupid racist garbage policy is this?

This is the number one problem with schools today: administration. They’re why nothing good gets done in schools. They’re why teachers often don’t get decent pay or have adequate classroom supplies despite billions pouring into education. They’re why we have stupid “zero tolerance” policies that really mean zero common sense.

Fire and ban from any job involving education every single person above the level of school principal NOW. Everyone who matters will benefit, ESPECIALLY the children!

Let me see if I got this straight -

"Students of Color" will receive priority for placement in classrooms, White students will not attend public schools but are allowed to choose between online learning, private school, homeschooling, trade schools, etc.

Did I get that right?

What's it called when you are forced to go somewhere against your will, submit to authority without your consent, and perform work without payment, all because of the color of your skin?

That’s the way I see it.

They are sending the black kids to school to get CV19. While the white kids are safe at home.

So, I guess these administrators want to make the black students guinea pigs by exposing them to the COVID. (Putting on a bit of reverse spin Aliynsky)

I’m stealing from another but needs to be said:

Are ‘students of color’ colored students?
Are ‘People of Color’ colored people?

“Democrats have come full circle.”

I know where you’re coming from, however as has been clearly, irrefutably proved by Dinesh, there is a straight line from the Democrat party of slavery to the current Democrat (”if you don’t vote for me, you ain’t black (my n.gg.)) plantation.

So, as deadly as they claim covid is, wouldn’t sending kids of color be hazardous to their health. While white kids are safe at home kids of color are doomed.

White parents should ALL pull their kids out of school and go private.

Ok, so we should not reopen the schools because of the Wuhan-400.

And black people are more susceptible to the virus.

So let's hurry black children back into the schools.

Uh-huh.

Interesting.

Remember it is only racist if the BLM says it is. There is no such thing as racism or a hate crime against a white person. Legally the white person is at the bottom of the pile

The absolute top priority — nothing less than an obsession — for public school administrators for 60 years has been closing racial gaps in academic performance. Nothing has worked, and it is highly politically incorrect to acknowledge the reasons why. This is one of the taproots of liberal irrationality today. So: reopening schools to black and Hispanic students while exiling white (and, I will venture to guess, Asian) students is a predictable move. Never let a crisis go to waste. In jurisdictions that are already majority minority, the politics of this will be powerful. And nationwide, a majority of elementary school kids are non-white.

Makes sense. Unlike white students, students of color need extra help in literally everything, especially in subjects that don’t have the word “studies” in them or require any level of studying. They need 3 free meals a day because only white kid’s parents are the only parents that can both afford to buy and have the necessary knowledge and skills to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with a banana. Unfortunately, in our racist world, only white males are the only group capable of functioning in every facet of life without the labor of other white males as they are born with universal knowledge and skills in all topics
