Hmmm....what does African-centered mean? Will that have slavery like in the Sudan? Or genocide? Will the cafeteria refuse to feed some students?

Why, what a wonderful idea this is! I can see it now, the Idi Amin cafeteria, the Samuel Doe library, the Hussein Aideed auditorium…

This special school will accommodate the special needs of these special students. They will emerge from this wonderful education fully acclimated and ready for a productive career… in Africa.

The real kicker is the entire desegregation case was built on the remedy of magnet schools attracting suburban kids. A Latin Magnet, a Law Enforcement Magnet, etc. Now someone will have to tell me how an Afro-Centric Magnet is going to attract out-district kids in hopes of altering racial balance and improving education. I think they ran this through prior to the new board members being seated.

Silly african-ish garb, songs, and a slanted and mostly unusable reading of world history.

There'll still be chicken nuggets and pizza for lunch though - they'll just be called something else.
