Just doing what their union-led teachers have taught them to do.
Blah, blah, blah..... whites are racists....
Anybody see the inherently racist aspects of the study?
Everyone knows that when there are no black people around that all white people are eating caviar and drinking champagne and plotting ways to hold blacks down.......
Experts say...Clearly white children need to be extrerminated. /sarc
[* White children and adults, perhaps unaware of their biases, may believe in equality principles while behaving in unacknowledged racist ways.]
Yes, only white children and adults behave in unacknowledged racist ways. You'd never find blacks or hispanics behaving this way...ever.

"A developmental window of opprotunity exists..."Liberal speak.Translation:let's start indoctrinating(brainwashing)children into politically correct thought as soon as possible.
So kids become more racist the longer they attend school?
Obviously, school's bad for kids.
The flaw in the study is not to recognize that fourth graders may have begun forming their own (and not "racist") conclusions as to differing tendencies of behavior of members of ethnic groups based on their experience and observations with other children of those ethnic groups in their schools.
For example, even by the fourth grade children may begin to form the view that East Asians tend to take a more serious approach to school, as a result of their home family and cultural environment. Obviously the children will observe many exceptions as well.
Children also may notice that more "needy" black children, as a result of single motherhood, a lack of discipline at home and poor parenting, tend to be disruptive, bullying and not serious about schoolwork, even more so than "needy" white children. Again, obviously children will have the opportunity to observe individual black children in many cases in which the opposite is true, but nevertheless children are quite observant of tendencies in different groups.
Perhaps for this reason the fourth grade children were more likely to over-reward black children depicted in the story as being productive, positive social participants, and more likely to under-reward the "needy" black children in the stories whom they may associate with their own observations of black schoolchildren.
Those aspects of society that overtly and covertly attribute value and normality to white people and Whiteness, and devalue, stereotype, and label people of color as "other", different, less than, or render them invisible. Examples of these norms include defining white skin tones as nude or flesh colored, having a future time orientation, emphasizing individualism as opposed to a more collective ideology, defining one form of English as standard, and identifying only Whites as great writers or composers.Although some animals have pigmented skin, most have pale flesh. Planning for the future is a good thing--not sure how that's "racist" beyond the implication that Blacks don't. Non-communism is also a good thing, only racist if one believes Blacks to be communist. Assignment of one form of English as standard has been sound practice for centuries even when all the variations in question were spoken by Whites.
About the only thing on that list I might regard as racist would be an inappropriate exclusion of minorities from lists of great people. Since most great writers and composers were, in fact, White, it is entirely appropriate that a list of such people should be dominated by Whites. It would not be right to exclude someone who happens to be a great writer or composer merely because he's Black, but nor would it be right to include mediocre writers or composers on a list because they're "Black".
Interesting that the study didn't include kids who were black, brown, red, yellow, or whatever.
Excuse me, but my BS meter is pegging. Children learn by what adults around them do, if it's using foul language, discrimination, even driving skills. It's the "Monkey see - monkey do" that influences children.
A kid will not learn this garbage unless someone teaches them that principle. The same holds true for many other things and at all ages while they are growing up and learning.
So, as I see it, nobody thought of giving each artist the money that his/her/its art sold for?
What a concept!
The fundamental premise stinks.
The booty to be distributed isn't earned, it's CHARITY.
The racist premise of the creators of this study is that black people can't earn things, they can only depend upon charity.
I just don't understand that. What is a "racially based reason"?
