How did this get approved? Guilty, white, misled, ignorant, liberal politicians afraid of being accused of being racist, being pressured by two black mothers and their well-paid lobbyists.
We already have vocational schools that are focused more on wood shop, auto, and other technical skills for problem kids and students who couldn't or can't succeed in the mainstream high school curriculum. Why not add an 'Afrocentric' course to these types of schools to help these students succeed?
What scares me is this.
Did anyone else's high school ever get into a rivalry with another high school? Usually this happened between a Public and a Catholic school that were in close vicinity... I saw this happen between a few schools in Mississauga.
Now, those same rivalries will exist, but between the 'black' (officially, anyone is allowed to go, it's just the material being taught is focused more on black issues) schools and the Public and/or Catholic schools... What kind of tension between the communities involved will this promote?
What was wrong with opening up more schools for ALL disadvantaged kids? Black kids aren't failing because they're black. They're failing because the black community has a higher percentage of low-income, and single-parent families. These conditions exist in ALL racial brackets, just at different levels. Why the hell would they only focus on the black community, when it's a problem for ALL low-income and single-parent kids?
I don't have the answers to many of my own questions, but I DO know that opening a school specifically focused on black students is one of the WRONG answers.
