rather than finding out WHY young black kids are failing here (no future career prospects?) we're gonna bundle them in a class with all of the other failing black kids because that'll solve things.
I suppose they could just leave them there so they could ruin their educations, as well as the educations of everyone else.
Black kids are failing, because they are of the belief that being smart and working hard is....white. Morons.
I can see why you would think that. As far as you can see black kids have this "street" attitude, where all they're interested in is crime and seem to have a total disregard for the system. Why is this though? I think we'd both agree it's not genetics, or a natural thing.
How would you feel if you knew that even if you work your ass off all the way through school, you will never ever get a job as good as a white guy who works half as hard as you and yes this is a fact.
Would you give up hope of doing well? Would you act antisocially? Do a survey of Young black teens and tell me how they think they could possibly get rich... they'll say sports, crime, music or the lottery... it would be rare to hear from my career.
It's easy for you, if you moderately hard, you're guaranteed at least an office job, a black kid in your shoes doesn't have this chance. I work in an office in London and like every other office we have one black guy in our whole office... this isn't racism inherrently, just not that many black kids make it though school college and university (let alone could afford that).
I don't know what the answer is, i think the attitudes and the populous and the way education is structured needs major reform. But no short term fix will sort this out.
