What would racial profiling have to do with learning? Is knowledge biased against darker skin color?

Is knowledge biased against skin color? Of course it is. Havent you been paying attention?

Math is math is math. No matter where you are, your age, gender, or race, math is math. It does not change. Yet the NAALCP and other 'civil rights' groups claim tests such as the SAT and others are 'prejudiced' against blacks.

Could someone please explain to me how math tests can be prejudiced? This white boy will tell you that math has always given me big trouble.

And there is a tremendous anti-acheivement mentality in the black community. I proscribe that the educational problems of black students is not racial, but cultural. There is no doubt, and it can not be denied that black students who do well in school are accused of 'acting white' or being a sell-out or an Uncle Tom.

I firmly believe that liberals think blacks are inherently incapable of learning.

The young man who won the national spelling bee last night had a darker skin than most afro-americans. Did not stop him from spelling everything they threw at him. He is of Hindian descent.
