My wife did, but it was at Archbishop Ryan, where, hopefully, they don’t do this.

” We were taught—yet again, through bullets and teargas­—what it means to be black in this country. “


It means admission and tuition assistance to elite colleges.

It means a job in the public sector-—even if you are a low scorer in the exam.

It means you cannot be criticized-——ever.

That until Blacks take over everything by force...any crime is justified and and all white cops are sons of Hitler.

If I had to educate my kids again, they would never get near a liberal-infested government school.

Race race race race.

All that matters today is color of skin, not content of character.

Quoting that commie rag, new republic is exactly what you’d expect. The commie outlook. No surprises here.

I feel sorry for Ms. Toliver and people who think like her. They're forced to live in such a mean, terrible, evil place like the United States.

“In the six years I’ve taught English this school, I’ve gotten to know and collaborate with brilliant, revolutionary young people of color.”
Rachel, do you not proof read your work? Does the New Republic not edit what they publish? You be an english teecher?  You might teach in a magnet school and you might be down with the revo, but you will be assaulted. Good luck.

They can march down my block and try. But They won’t get past my house.

“Andrew Wilkins, another of my school’s young alumni, said: “To this day, I am confused as to what type of emotions this course intended to arise from its students.””

Arise from? I read that and instantly thought back to when I was in grad school. The program I was in had a token black student. Sorry, if that sounds racist, but it’s true. That student gave me a chapter of his dissertation to read over. It read as if someone who was half educated wrote it. Just think of this and you’ll get the idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Izpa9D7c77U
