Indefinitely. They are taught, and believe, that their problems have nothing to do with their behavior, schools/teachers or culture. It's all whitey's fault.
they will attribute their plight to racism. After all, they have a high school diploma,
Of course they will, they are already being taught and conditioned that this is the only reason for their self induced plight.
Millions of exams are all showing the same thing. It’s time to admit that the exams are all revealing the same truth.
The observed failure is due to lack of inherent ability, a bad home environment, and a culture of rewarding failure. Add to that the bad habit of blaming Whitey for it all, and you have a recipe for exactly what you see happening.
As others say - under present conditions, they will accept it forever. As a voting block, Americans Blacks are extremely gullible and credulous. They seem to be easily bought, again and again, by the promises of progressive government, and are convinced by the intellectual arguments given for their own failure.
Just wait until construction companies are forced to hire these college graduates to engineer high rise building and highway over-passes.
Our over managed and centralized education system is one of our nations greatest enemies.
Independent School District has become a oxymoron and a sardonic joke.
The best bet to really overcoming this would be for a deep pockets, Republican conservative to set up a private elementary-middle-secondary school solely for poor black children.
It would have strict rules and discipline, school uniforms, serve breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Its teachers would wear formal teaching attire as professionals, and many of them would be veterans. If parents signed a statement that they could not guarantee a good home environment for their children, the school would also act as a boarding school.
Students would have thorough annual physicals, tests especially looking for things that could inhibit learning, like dyslexia, vision and hearing problems, and overall health.
English instruction, strictly by phonics and grammar as well as penmanship, typing and lots and lots of reading.
Mathematics instruction, with frequent use, review, practice and applications. No calculators until late in their education, for complex calculations.
Home economics and financial management, health and safety, natural sciences, etc.
By the time their first seniors graduated, I expect they would be on a par or even better than white students from charter schools. Much better than white students from public schools.
On the news last night, there was a piece showing Denzel Washington speaking similar thoughts. The commentator said that with words like those Denzel could win the Presidency
We’re going on three generations of dependent, unproductive urban black wards of the state not being held to account for really anything, barring commission of armed robbery, rape or murder and they’re working on stigmatizing the enforcement of even that minimal behavioral standard. They’re being rewarded for this because they vote as a bloc for Democrats. Democrats accept no responsibility for the creation of this festering wound in the national populace however, they blame racism. This extends to the public school system. No standards, no accountability, no expectations of the students themselves to even behave in a civil manner let alone actually learn the coursework. Why? Because it can again be blamed upon racism, which is the mantra repeated for more funding for more Democrat boondoggles which will only lead to more of the same but worse. It’s a vicious cycle and the only ones who can break it are black people themselves, but I am not encouraged by what I’ve seen over the past several decades. It’s gone all Lord Of The Flies and hope is fading.
In 2016, in 13 of Baltimore’s 39 high schools, not a single student scored proficient on the state’s mathematics exam.
Of course not, the test is obviously too hard...and racist. /S

The problem and solution were dealt with in the book ‘The Bell Curve’
Blacks are occupationally obsolete at this point. As a group they seem to have no idea of what it takes to function effectively in the 21st century and less interest in making the effort to find out.
winning with the liberal democrat formula.
No dad, no math.
