Bull puckey. The Harvard group has "released" the same figures for months now. I appeared on Tavis Smiley's NPR radio show a year and a half ago to discuss the "newly released" figures.

The bottom line is that people go to school near their homes, period. Housing patterns are certainly far more segregated than many people might want to believe - especially in urban areas.

This is a result of people wanting to live in certain areas. In those areas, you will have far more schools with higher concentrations of black or Hispanic attendance, and in other areas, higher concentrations of predominantly white attendance. And yet other areas that have a mix that more or less represents the percentages of the racial makeup of America.

The bottom line, however, is that access is available equally.

The NAACP is doing nothing but pimping these statistics to justify their pathetic goal: vilification of mainstream America, and anyone who happens not to follow the remainder of the lemming-like masses who follow the Jackson-Sharpton cabal and the national "leadership" of the NAACP.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
