NO MENTION OF THE OPPORTUNITIES for the GOP. The key is black parents. You know- vouchers/choice. Will the GOP ‘get it’? You tell me.

Problem we had was getting black parents to participate in anything beyond if star could play football

We’d offer to go get the grandma and bring her to the school

They simply had around 10% the involvement white parents had

I dealt with this for a decade in Nashville in PTO stuff

Bought 1000s of dollars to replace the rags uniforms urban black grade schoolers had

They were happy with that but were disinterested in the humdrum of school plays and programs or tutoring and so forth

My kids were in arguably Nashville’s richest public grade school and we had MECO black kids bused out for demographic parity.....

A few years back someone....brought suit against that and they stopped
