District officials in San Diego evidently believe that the practice of grading students based on average scores is racist.

[At the Reason article]:

...Under the new system, pupils will not be penalized for failing to complete assignments or even show up for class, and teachers will give them extra opportunities to demonstrate their "mastery" of subjects. What constitutes mastery is not quite clear, but grades "shall not be influenced by behavior or factors that directly measure students' knowledge and skills in the content area," according to guidance from the district.

District officials evidently believe that the practice of grading students based on average scores is racist and that "anti-racism" demands a learning environment free of the pressure to turn in assignments on time. As evidence for the urgency of these changes, the district released data showing that minority students received more Ds and Fs than white students: Just 7 percent of whites received failing grades, compared to 23 percent of Native Americans, 23 percent of Hispanics, and 20 percent of black students.

"This is part of our honest reckoning as a school district," Vice President Richard Barrera told a local NBC affiliate. "If we're actually going to be an anti-racist school district, we have to confront practices like this that have gone on for years and years."

Averaging = racist.
Homework = racist.
Failing = racist.
Inability to read = racist.
Inability to do math = racist.
Inability to write a proper paragraph = racist.
Having to go to school to learn anything other than indoctrination = racist.

Tardiness, or not even showing up, is now excellency in learning.

Lack of knowledge and skills now constitutes mastery.

War is Peace.

Slavery is Freedom.

White people get more A’s, B’s and C’s? Therefore those grades must be racist.

It’s all based upon Critical Race Theory, which is based upon CT, according to Robin DiAngelo, a heavy-hitter within CRT.

CT also led to Critical Gender Theory, where we get this trans nonsense.

And CT traces back to the Frankfurt School, which traces back to Germany.

Yeppers.

Having been in Academia for a few decades, I assure you, most of the alleged academic experts in the medical, engineering, sciences, education, etc. fields are dumbing down the system so sheer and utter idiots can be the doctors, nurses, teachers, engineers’, etc. of the future......

A new word I learned from The rise and Fall of the Third Reich is Rassenkunde - the ‘scientific’ racism taught in schools by the NAZI’s before the wholesale killing of Jews started. It’s the left’s ideology.

I think that the Left is sticking with their traditional message: “We believe black people are stupid and can never really be as good as white people. But we want them to vote for us, so we will give them stuff that they couldn’t possibly earn on their own.”

Hey, Lefties — keep fightin’ that racism.

It wasnt them, nor was it God-fearing Hadidic Jews, Ultra Orthodox or even Orthodox Jews, nor your average run of the mill Germans, it was atheists.

This be the test to take if you not pass regular test:

1. Dwayne has an AK47 with a 30 round clip. If he misses 6 out of 10 shots and shoots 13 times at each drive by shooting, how many drive by shootings can he attempt before he has to reload?

2. If Jose has two ounces of cocaine and he sells an 8 ball to Jackson for $320 and 2 grams to Billy for $85 per gram, what is the street value of the balance of the cocaine if he doesn’t cut it?

3. Rufus is pimping for three girls. If the price is $65 for each trick, how many tricks will each girl have to turn so Rufus can pay for his $800 per day crack habit?

4. Jarome wants to cut his 1/2 pound of Heroin to make 20% more profit. How many ounces of cut will he need?

5. Willie gets $200 for stealing a BMW, $50 for a Chevy and $100 for a 4×4. If he has stolen 2 BMW’s and 3 4×4’s, how many Chevy’s will he have to steal to make $800?

6. Raoul is in prison for 6 years for murder. He got $10,000 for the hit. If his common law wife is spending $100 per month, how much money will he have left when he gets out of prison and how many years will he get for killing her since she spent his money?

7. If the average spray paint can covers 22 square feet and the average letter is 3 square feet, how many letters can a tagger spray with 3 cans of paint?

8. Hector knocked up six girls in his gang. There are 27 girls in the gang. What percentage of the girls in the gang has Hector knocked up?
