This is the equivalent of saying that we have to convict more innocent white people of murder to be fair to blacks, who are only 12% of the population but commit 50% of the murders.

Policies proposed to boost boys [and men] of color ....[CA] "State leaders should revise school testing and funding, extend health care coverage for those aging out of foster care, and make it harder for schools to suspend and expel - all to improve the odds of success for boys and young men of color in California.

Those are among dozens of recommendations from a state legislative committee that spent the past year and a half looking into why the state's minority youth are less healthy, have lower test scores and are more likely to be incarcerated than other young people.

.....Assembly Select Committee on the Status of Boys and Men of Color, led by Assemblyman Sandré Swanson, D-Alameda, will introduce more than 50 pages of policy and legislative recommendations...

......[Swanson] plans to ask Assembly Speaker John Pérez to appoint a new chair so the committee can continue its work next year, and see whether lawmakers should create a state commission on the status of boys and men of color.

Here is a sampling of recommendations from the state Assembly's Select Committee on the Status of Boys and Men of Color:....."

Failing to discipline misbehaving black students causes a disparate impact on well behaved black students.

Therefore, whoever is caught misbehaving must always be punished, regardless of race, lest their peer group be disparately impacted.

Barry Obama cannot run on his failed anti-Capitalist, Socialistic record so he will as noted, use the race card to threaten otherwise color blind people. Barry Hussein Obama is a calloused and crooked politician from the Saul Alinsly school of - Pick the target - white people - freeze it - make the most of the Politically Correct.... personalize it - race and polarize it using lies, innuendo, guilt for success....Barry Obama will use his race without blinking; he has been there and done that Politically Correct America has forgone courage and Barry Hussein Obama knows it....Michelle Obama is truly racist.

great article. thanks for posting it.

i think the key point is this:
-
“I hope we can also acknowledge that whites are twice as likely to be disciplined as Asians.”
-
basically, proving that it is NOT because of “racist” teachers over-disciplining black students.

It’s racist if you don’t wear your pants halfway down your crack and sire children out of wedlock.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

It’s racist to even make black kids go to school.

The gender discrimination in school discipline and prison terms is even worse.

Males are only 50% of the population, but 93% of those in prison. The only explanation for this disproportion is illegal discrimination. We must therefore imprison random females and/or release male prisoners until the sex ration in prisons is balanced at 50%.

We also need to release young people and imprison more older people. More discrimination.

I just visited a friend, a teacher in a bankrupt California city. Her first grade class size was increased this year from 20 to 32. There are no aides, Phys.Ed., art or music. There is no library, other than what teachers bring in themselves. Her district has accepted 0bama cash. Her students are primarily black and Spanish-speaking students. An edict has been given to NOT refer any black students to the office for discipline, because it will ruin the district’s statistics. Even the little ones have the power, and they know it. Any deficits in their performance are officially the teacher’s fault. The textbooks cover all the lefty social issues.

Maybe the liberals should confine their efforts to why this is rather than try to excuse this with specious claims of racism.

This isn't about stats, fairness, penological consistency, or any other thing than a contest of wills between the population producing this army of criminals, and the rest of society. It is about race -- that part at least is correct.

This isn't a discussion. It's warfare. Realize that, or be a chump and a victim.
