These tests are racist because they ask questions based on the knowledge required to make a living in this free society.

Some people obviously think thats unfair - that questions should be pointed on how to live off the state.

Don't count on the National Education Assoc. (NEA) to try to bridge this hugh series cultural gap.

In the schools here they've changed questions to be racist the other way ---if you have $3.00 and tacos are $0.50 a piece, how many tacos can you buy ---and still they get the same results ---the white and asian kids still do better ---what else can they do? They're giving the standardized state tests in Spanish now also ---but it isn't helping the drop-out rate.
