Children “of color” are ten times more likely to get suspended
can look bad until you find out that children “of color” comprise 70% of the student body in the public schools there.

I live a long way from Minnesota.
Question: How did the Minneapolis school system come to be 70% non-white? Where did all the white people suddenly go?
What is the percentage of blacks? By Hispanic,are we talking about mostly Mexicans, or are we talking about people from all over Latin America?
Many people from Latin America are classified as white. They are the descendants of Spanish conquerors and later Spanish immigrants to Latin America. You can see these people in soap operas on the Spanish-speaking cable channels.
What brings/attracts blacks and Hispanics to Minneapolis in the first place? What kind of jobs attract them to such a cold climate?
I thought that Minnesota was one of the whitest of all the states.
