Declining schools in black areas are caused by the feral behavior of blacks themselves. There is a strong anti-education current among blacks. Achieving academic excellence is considered “acting white”; students earning good grades are routinely ridiculed, called names like “oreo”, etc. Criminal thugs, rap stars, and athletes are their heroes, not great statesmen, scientists, or entrepreneurs. There are far more disciplinary problems in schools with a majority of black students which takes away teacher time for teaching. I saw myself while teaching that the first students to act out were nearly always black. So I have little sympathy for their complaints about “bad schools in black areas”. They did that to themselves.
