So let me get this straight, study and hard work are dependent on the teacher? If Whites or Asians are doing well, it has to be because they were given superior teachers? The only reason Black inner city kids can’t read when they graduate high school is because the teachers failed them?
LMAO
Has Ebonics taught these people nothing?
Black inner city youth do excel in whatever they want to excel in. If it’s sports, they excel. If it’s music, they excel. If it’s the gangsta life style, they excel.
The sad fact is, the norms of the rest of society in too many instances, isn’t what the Black inner city kid wants to excel in.
Proper English in many instances doesn’t matter. Math in many instances doesn’t matter. Business administration type studies, just doesn’t appeal to them.
People, no matter their race, will excel in what they want to excel in. It’s the goals people. Do Whites, Asians, and inner city Blacks have the same goals? I don’t honestly think they do.
This isn’t intended to be a put-down. Blacks have a right to decide what their own goals are. It isn’t for me to tell them they are failing themselves. At some point it has to dawn on them. They have to be the ones to raise the level of their goals.
In the interest of fair play, a lot of Whites don’t develop goals and seek to achieve them in life. It’s my take that leaders in all groups are critical to the success of the youth of that group.
If there are a lot of leaders that are leading kids off track in these groups, it is up to the community to rid themselves of those people. Until then, not much is going to change.
Better teachers? LMAO
