“The ethnic make-up of Minneapolis schools is majority minority.”

Orwell is laughing his ass off. “majority minority”??

It’s what happens when people refuse to accept reality.

Just wrong. It is not just to provide unequal treatment based upon disparate impact alone, absent a showing of racist intent.

Why don't the Obama-Holder demagogues, the race-grievance industry, and various employees of the MSM do anything about this -- except reward the offenders unless they are white. I am sure more recent numbers will closely match these stats.

Here's a view of what teachers endure as reported by the U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE OFFICE OF JUSTICE PROGRAMS Indicators of School Crime and Safety: 2011

Translation...suspensions of “the most vulnerable among us” will drop to zero resulting in major classroom disruptions. Kids (of *all* colors) who *want* to learn won't be able to due to the chaos in the buses,classrooms,hallways and cafeteria.

How about visit Florida, and review how a young man on suspension from high school played around and got in a fight that cost him his life, plus was evidently cooking up lean. If I didn’t know any better it appears that they don’t want these kids disciplined or counseled so that they can go bowling for riots in Minnesota.

In the interests of protecting the rights of minority-majorities, I propose putting a camera in every classroom and showing the precipitating events on YouTube.

I’m sure this will vindicate the people who claim that there’s racism in the classroom, and completely silence the racists who suggest that perhaps black kids have a disproportionate number of suspensions because they’re disproportionately unruly.

And now you understand why only 37% of students in the Minneapolis School District are white (and probably liberal). This subtle discrimination against whites has probably been practiced hundreds of different ways in their schools without so much as a conscious pang. White kids in these schools probably wear shirts that say “Go ahead and beat me. I deserve it.”

Back before integration, Black school teachers/principles did not tolerate bad behavior among Black students. They were expected to do well, obey teachers and act responsible as a result many all black schools were top performing ones.
Then came the liberal infection of public schools and all that changed for the worse.

I’m black and this was told to me by my mom.

What they need to do is track how black students are treated by black teachers, or how Hispanic students are treated by Hispanic teachers. Everyone's assuming the teachers and staff are all white and that therefore this is racism, but I can tell you that at my inner city school, we have 27 adults (teachers, security, and support) and only 6 of us are white. One is Asian, one is Armenian, 4 are black, and allllll the rest are Hispanic.

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

Every single white and Asian parent should pull their child out of that school district, and let the chips fall where they may. That is exactly what we did. When I learned (first hand) that the response to this type of misbehavior and thuggery was allowed because, “that is their culture”, we pulled our children out of the district. I am so grateful that we could do that.

Now the district whines because it is bleeding students, accusing local charter schools of “stealing” their students. *Pffft*

They don't want to go there.

Something similar happened in the first High School I went to (east coast, ca 1970). Rather than be accused of racism, black students were given a pass as administrators and teachers looked the other way (only black teachers dared try to maintain discipline among the black students). When the black students ran wild because they could get away with virtually anything short of a capital crime, it wasn't long before the white students decided they "had equal rights, too!".

The result was years of mayhem in the halls, State Police patrolling the halls with K-9s on occasion, all but two entrances to a 1200 student school chained and locked shut, and bomb threats on a daily basis.

If the school district in Minnesota wants that sort of mayhem, they will have it, otherwise, they will emphasize that the rules are the rules--regardless of what color your hide is--and should be enforced with equal vigour for all.

Luckily, I was able to leave that wonderful educational environment and go to a private school. Not everyone has the option of getting out.

Nothing will change for white students, they will still be suspended at the discretion of each school’s principal.

Yeah, right. More of them will be made an example of for trumped up offenses, and the entire discipline of the group will be lowered to excuse bad behavior by the favored-status persons, if my experience at work is any example.
