The last 25 years they have done everything they could to make all kids, whites too, as stupid as possible.

Public school is child abuse, would anyone expect differently?

This is a direct result of the mainstream culture's lionization of
single mothers.

Simple. The black hip-hop culture has a hostile attitude towards education. Uncool to be “actin’ white”.

If that isn't sufficient reason to abolish the NEA then nothing is!

This is news to be breathlessly pronounced by the NY Times as a shocking new discovery? This has been documented billions of times. As far back as The Bell Curve they dissected IQ scores and school performance. IIRC, the poorest quintile of whites outperformed the wealthiest quintile of blacks by one standard deviation. Check my numbers, but they won’t be far off.

An achievement gap separating black from white students has long been documented a social divide extremely vexing to policy makers and the target of one blast of school reform after another.It's an 'ambition gap', studying isn't 'keepin' it real.'

That’s part of the problem. If the truth were spoken, you would be called a racist.

Only 12 percent of black fourth-grade boys are proficient in reading, compared with 38 percent of white boys,38% is nothing to write home about either.

Fairness demands that we stop educating white boys until the coloreds catch up. Oh, I see, you’re already doing that. Splendid! Carry on!

It’s because the testing is administered in white English.....check out some of the crime shows, and you’ll see all the subtitles which are needed for understanding the lingo being spoken in ‘The Community’.
