Some people just aren’t that goal-oriented or disciplined.
Sounds like my daughter told she heard some black kids chiding those blacks in the advanced high school classes with her: “Why out trying to be white like Sarah?” Obviously these teenagers had already been ingrained with the idea that to study and be successful was “white” and therefore “bad” while the goal should be unsuccessful and uneducated. From the Prince George’s Co., MD school system about a dozen years ago.
Oh goody!! Homeschooling my three amazing teenagers was the right choice!
Quite correct. If you have good grades and show up on time, you will have supremacy.
Bad behavior is patriotic now.
Why not give all blakc youth a college diploma so they wont have to go thru the rigorous unjust white privileged curriculum that is racist. They get a job thru affirmative action anyway
In my class, I accommodate kids with special learning disabilities, allow work to be turned in up to the final exam, and forgive a student if English is not his/her first language. After that, if a student wants to skip out on the work, then they can take the grade that this implies. Oh, and an exam grade is part of the class. Show me that you can understand the subject matter and show me that the answer you got is based on work on your paper. Other than that I don’t care a whit about your ethnic background.
And while I am on this subject, yes, I won the lottery by being born in this country, having two parents who believed in me, and basically having a work ethic that never failed to do the classwork being demanded by my teachers. One of the lessons is that you are going to achieve what you are worth to others. Skip that lesson at your peril. This trainer is not preparing students for real life.
Is this why Hillary and her cronies can joke about "C.P." time?
Of course, this also means that the learning Bell Curve is also white privilege? Hard work, incentive, a great work ethic has nothing to do with success, only if you are white privilege? Our whole educational structure has to be re evaluated or revamped, those who teach in name only have to be replaced with those who encourage success. Students don’t study as they use to, now they’re too busy paying attention to their I phones and ignoring the teachers. I remember coming home from school, going out to play basket or hand ball, return for supper, ate, and spent 2 hours doing home work. If I was raised by an Asian “family”, I would have come home spent 2 hours doing home work, have supper and spend another 2 hours researching, and doing more more homework. There lies the difference, it isn’t a white thing, its the difference between a good student and a poor one, and we aren’t talking financial or social status.
If I were a minority, I’d be offended by her comments. She basically said that minorities are lazy, run late, aren’t goal oriented, etc.
The racial narrative of White tends to be like this: Rugged individual, honest, hard-working, disciplined, rigorous, successful.”
And there is something wrong with encouraging these values??? Only in a liberal society that is dependent on the government to meet all its needs and where individualism is looked down upon in favor of “group think” are these values so maligned.
The war is on and we’re watching American Idol.
"If you have to work twice as hard as these little white sh***, you damn well better work twice as hard."
This is satire right? There is no way this can be real? Please tell me this is satire!
We are wrong to restrict bridge design and open heart surgery to people who know what they’re doing.
Quite the contrary, not holding minority students, especially Blacks, to academic standards to assuage perceived white guilt, is racist as it will leave these students uneducated, unprepared to hold jobs and forces them into continued government dependency.
Oh you betcha. Cause my boss doesn’t evaluate my work or care if I am late
Just imagine if a man in a white robe told a crowd that blacks couldn't be expected to show up on time and would never get good grades.
