How can this be after 8 years of the Obama Administration?
Guilt isn’t enough. Lobotomize Whites and Asians!
/S
You can spend all the money in the world, but it will be mostly wasted when you have a culture that doesn’t make education a priority.
The lag is because of the “special programs”.
Not despite of them.
Blacks are raised in one of the worst cultures on earth of their own design; the African-American Urban Culture, where achievement is met with a beat down.
STUDY, COMMITMENT, COURAGE.
Yes, how after eight years of the Kenyan?
And how can it be true since the same educators that “fixed things” last time, will now be given a chance to do it again, for what seems like the 100th time, each one more of a failure than the last.
We need some new ideas, and the education encampment needs to be shut out of it, until the decisions come down.
We could replace every teacher with a mother and a home school plan and do ever so much better.
Make “Hooked on Phonics” a requirement for their Senior Year or High School.
There is a solution to this problem
However, the NAACP would object to the solution.
Hint...The solution is not more money...
Since we’re talking California, what are these assessment / learning standards?
Until they find the courage to address the root causes, nothing will change. This had to do with IQ, black culture and the destruction of the family.
When you keep doing the same thing and expect different results......
The entire urban black culture is at odds with individual black success through education.
Lower the standards then everyone will pass.
It’s called studying. Behaving in class. Speaking proper English.
Blame their parents.
BTW, though I left High Screwel at 15 and went to college, I was only able to do so because my parents encouraged my curiosity and creativity by making sure I could find answers to questions with our own library at home.
Further, they supported subjects I found interesting and were okay that In was not competent in one subject: Algebra.
Although I used Algebra in Advance AP Mechanical Drafting, I had absolutely no use for its theory and solving problems that do not exist.
Still, I am very good at mathematics and the corollary activity of learned reason and probability I did excel at and that was Chess.
High School champion and county champion.
Oh, and I had nothing but straight A’s or better in every other subject.
I think children who have parents not taking an interest in their education often asked themselves “If this doesn’t matter to my parents?” And then come to the obvious conclusion, with its corollary AKA failure....
Charles Darwin on Africans
“Since the dawn of history the Negro has owned the continent of Africa – rich beyond the dream of poet’s fancy, crunching acres of diamonds beneath his bare black feet and yet he never picked one up from the dust until a white man showed to him its glittering light.
His land swarmed with powerful and docile animals, yet he never dreamed a harness, cart, or sled.
A hunter by necessity, he never made an axe, spear, or arrowhead worth preserving beyond the moment of its use. He lived as an ox, content to graze for an hour.
In a land of stone and timber he never sawed a foot of lumber, carved a block, or built a house save of broken sticks and mud.
With league on league of ocean strand and miles of inland seas, for four thousand years he watched their surface ripple under the wind, heard the thunder of the surf on his beach, the howl of the storm over his head, gazed on the dim blue horizon calling him to worlds that lie beyond, and yet he never dreamed a sail.”
Maybe they should find out why 26% did.
Smash the glasses of educated students and eat them. It’s what is done in Communist nations to make everyone equally miserable.
“I’m inherently gloomy about the prospect of Africa because all our social policies are based on the fact that their intelligence is the same as ours – whereas all the testing says not really.....people who have to deal with black employees find this not true”. “there is no firm reason to anticipate that the intellectual capacities of peoples geographically separated in their evolution should prove to have evolved identically. Our wanting to reserve equal powers of reason as some universal heritage of humanity will not be enough to make it so”.
