liberalism causes achievement gaps

The result of liberal racism... They expect minority kids to fail and perform poorly, so they create schools that perpetuate those outcomes. They know the less educated and the more hopeless they keep these kids, the easier it is to control them, and move towards, and keep them in the socialist dogma.

Quote:The brightbeam report shows that progressive cities like Minneapolis do worse — and, surprisingly, conservative cities do better — when it comes to educating students of color. According to the report, conservative cities have gaps in math and reading that are on average 15 and 13 percentage points smaller than those in progressive cities....
The data should cause us to wonder how it is possible that cities like Minneapolis, known for prosperity and progressive values, could continue to fail our most vulnerable children so miserably within the public-school system.

When progressive leaders fail to act with a sense of urgency in addressing these highly disturbing gaps, it sends the signal that the system and its leaders are comfortable with the status quo.

You hit the key component, "the less educated and the more hopeless they keep these kids, the easier it is to control them..." They are at least forward looking if nothing else.

Thanks for that Superfly!!

It is really an eye opener!!
I sent this this to a buddy of mine who is an assistant Superintendent of a school district in CA. He said this is a well known fact that is never discussed in official circles.
It is sad that they are keeping these kids down for the power grab of the "compassionate people".

"Keep 'em dumb, keep 'em poor, keep 'em dependent on handouts, and you can keep 'em voting democrat."

I don't believe that most of my leftist friends truly believe this. But I believe they willingly follow political leaders who do. And I don't understand why.

I have major reservations about the efficacy of this study. There isn’t a lot of disclosure on the methodology and I think the sample size is too small IMO.

Regardless, as long as the metric for success in public schools is college admission, the system will remain broken.

I watched one of D'souza's (sp?) documentaries where he discussed this...That when the racist democrats realized that they could no longer openly discriminate against the blacks they essentially moved them from the plantation to the inner city where they would be held captive in a different way through unemployment, poor education, and handouts.
