Toronto School Board Approves Black Schools

I'm sure most people have seen this headline by now, that the Toronto school board voted 11-9 in favour of an "afrocentric" school, but I thought I'd post it any ways.

http://www.thestar.com/News/GTA/article/298714

Personally I find it appalling. If black youth are dropping out at a higher rate and getting in trouble with crime at a higher rate. There should not be focus on separating them. They should focus on how the parents are raising them, they should train teachers better to connect with black youth, or they should change the curriculum to better focus on a more diverse history.

By the sounds of it the only thing that is going to focus on "black issues" is going to be history. Which is only 1 of many subjects. I mean math and science is universal is it not?

I know Im ranting but one lady summed it up best. "Martin luther king jr. didn't fight and pay with his life for this"

your thoughts

That's great news. I remember McGuinty saying he didn't approve of it back in November, it's good to see he is keeping his word. Hopefully the city won't back it for funding either.

now why you gotta pick on the Asians? lol

I have to say that a 'black school' is not gonna help with race equality or racism or anything like that, it's just going to promote more black pride, black awareness, and what not.

lol Republic of Pacifica

on the subject tho, i think its rather stupid to have such a school because those going to such school will be so lost in this little "black world" that they wont know how to react when they see white people or even them yellow people...

having such a school is going to lead to an increase in "discrimination" appeals based on my aforementioned thought when they graduate and dont get things their way and feel its cos they black

Dumbest thing I have ever heard of.

As a minority, I find it insulting that some think they need a 'special' school to help them succeed. Kids fail because their parents do not pay enough attention.

How many immigrants come here and flourish every year? Fuck, half of them can't even speak the language, let alone relate to the culture or material being taught.

I say, stop making excuses, and start taking care of your kids.

I will refrain from saying something offensive. Just know that I'm thinking it.

Posted by Vivid Boy on Jan-30-2008 22:51:

well then i will for you jennie:

I think its great they got their own schools. I dont think it pushes them back a 100 years. now all they need is to get their own drinking fountains and washrooms.

Posted by malek on Jan-30-2008 22:53:

and to keep their race pure, lets forbid white girls to mingle with them

Posted by Silky Johnson on Jan-30-2008 22:53:

LOL

Not really what I had in mind, but it works.

So uh, have they found a way to blame this decision on the white man yet?

Posted by Vivid Boy on Jan-30-2008 22:57:

i say we give it to them and just dump crack and guns in there like we usually do.
