Black kid from crappy HS, parents no help.
Busts his butt in school, study’s his arse off and gets TOP SCORES on SAT and ACT.
But is now just seen as another deprived minority.
No standards and low expectation racism hurts minority’s the most and in so many ways.
But white Liberals think they are helping.
Burn It All Down.
Exactly right about the high performing minority kids. The ones with good but not great test scores are scooped up by elite colleges because there are so few of them. 1% of black kids score above 1400 on the SAT. 9% are over 1200. That hurts those kids when they are thrown into the deep-end because Harvard and Yale want ‘diversity.’
If you live in one of those areas where parents are Ivy or bust, suggest that if they really believed white privilege is bad, they would forbid their kids from applying to elite schools, and attend a regional state school. It’s the only way to stop systemic racism. It’s fun to the reaction when you suggest they live up to their beliefs and sacrifice their kids’ futures.
