Will they teach the kids about famous Africans, such as, Emperor Bokassa I, or Idi Amin Dada (Two A’s, Two D’s and one gun).

>Pamoja Preparatory Academy @ Cole opened Monday as an African-centered school <

How about an American-centered school?

“New city school blends learning with African cultural flavor”

Why?

"I will study hard," they continued. "I will learn because I will study hard. I love myself. And loving myself, I will be myself, and know myself."

If this is African culture, why are they forever killing each other and living in such horrid conditions. Seems like if this really was African culture, Africa would be a really educated and prosperous place instead of the hell hole it is.

Why bother with doing this? Pack up and head for the home country. Everybody would benefit. Your students wouldn’t have to pretend to be African they would be African. So go, get back to your roots. See ya. Well actually no I won’t.

I’ll see your dashiki and Kwanzaa and raise you one George Washington and a father in your life with a job.

If Africa is so great, send them, back there.
Throw in the neo-Marxist with them.
I am sure Zimmbabwe is nice this time of year.

Things I would like to see:

“Ok, children, what have we learned today?”

“Gee, teacher, Africa kinda sucks.”

So sad! Another generation of kids with no saleable skills and no future but welfare, crime and poverty.

What about the American culture, are these children Americans, or are they foreigners? The US Constitution hanging around there anywhere? You know teaching them to have respect for the laws of THIS land?

“and recited the African creed...”

I will sell the tribes into slavery. I will be a bloody warrior. I will make graven images of my phallus. I will take my women by force....

Slimy, yet satisfying.

Funny. I just picked up my buddy whose office is on the same floor as the the welfare office in L.A., and a couple of black guys took turns pissing in the same urinal without flushing.
