The culture part is the problem. The culture includes head chopping, and so should not be taught.

Well, it makes sense ... they also have a PUBLIC school that caters ONLY to homosexuals.

Just so much outrageous BS. Our tax dollars at work. I don’t live in NY, but I can bet this socialistic appeasement will be coming to a city near you soon.

So when do they open a White School.

One that teaches young white kids about their European culture, How to speak English and study the great advances the White man brought to this country.

I'm curious about this.

Will the Koran be a part of the curriculum? Will it be mentioned more than the Bible is in an English (or alas, Spanish) speaking school?

Just another episode of the ongoing campaign of 'divide and conquer' by the leftrads.

Everyone else has their own schools if they want to preserve their 'culture'. It is not the place of public schools to foster division and separateness.

There should be a good lawsuit ready if any of the schools content touches religion - such as sharia law (it is leftard hypocrisy to push such in one case and shriek about any hint of Christian materials in the rest of the schools).
