as far as I can tell there are exactly ZERO studies about this that indicate the race of the teacher.

A black woman friend of mine in her 70s is constantly in a state of despair about her grandchildren and great-grands, because especially in black families, if parents today raise a hand to the kids or punish them, they can have the children taken away by social workers. I do not agree with any kind of actual abuse, but speaking as a white person who survived many spankings and verbal reprimands as a child, I can see how liberalism and white guilt has ruined blacks' sense of how to correct their kids.

Lovely poem. Reminds me of Dr. Ben Carson's stories about his mother correcting his homework by looking at it and saying, "You can do better," and handing it back for another go-around. He later discovered that she couldn't read. The work habits she instilled helped him eventually to became the youngest neurosurgeon in the United States by the age of 35, at the prestigious Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore.

I had the privilege of sitting next to his mother at an event at which he was the keynote speaker in 1999.

Thank Lutheran Social Services and other bleeding heart liberals for bringing in all the illegals and the United States’ largest Somali population. Hate to say it, but a lot of people of Scandinavian heritage are socialists at heart. That thinking from the home country has been passed down through generations.

Fully one-fifth of the U.S. population of Somalis live in Minnesota — about 20,000 out of a total of 100,000. Many others live around New York City.

Your post made me ache in so many ways.

Yeah, Hispanic families are increasingly the same way. In my family, had anyone threatened to call Social Services, my mom's attitude would have been, "You let me raise her my way, or you raise her your damn self."

I just wonder how long whites will put up with this crap?

The Irish? Ditto.

Yeah, we’re English-Irish-Scotch almost exclusively.

No, I mean, do black teachers suspend black students at the same rate white teachers suspend black students.
