I know a clown in Alabama that was drunk half his life and had affairs with more than one teacher and he got a gig as a principal.

A masters in education means nothing. If someone has tenure, most school systems will pay for their masters degrees. Most teachers eventually get them to make the extra money every year.

So many of the guys got into education because it was easier or they were in high school sports and wanted to be coaches. All of a sudden, they’re qualified to be principal.

You say you hate racism? Nietzsche: “Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster . . . for when you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.”

“According to Principal Rouse, the conversation was an opportunity for students who identify as Black to speak openly, honestly, and productively.”

The implication being, that those students will not do so in the presence of anyone who does not "identify as black".

“Racial affinity groups are often used in learning communities to help facilitate positive identity exploration and provide people with similar experiences a space in which to pose questions and process topics.”

One of the finest examples of impressively polysyllabic bureaucratese gobbledygook I have seen in a while. Funny, with Selma, all the Rosa Parks stuff going on that segregation is seen as the key to honesty and productivity... when those who saw the negative impacts of integration on all but the most gerrymandered school districts were shouted down as "racist" for pointing that out.

If you want education--real learning, not just warehouses for the worker bees' offspring--remove the distractions of race and gender and teach something solid. As for sexuality, well, people will figure that out.

Pathological altruism -

In many branches of psychology, altruism is situated among the highest of moral virtues. Moral psychologists highlight the personal and societal benefits of altruism (Colby & Damon, 1992), and those who study civic engagement offer guidelines for strengthening individuals’ propensity to engage in altruistic acts (Bowers et al., 2010). Clinical psychologists even classify altruism as one of the most mature defense mechanisms available to us (Vaillant, 1993).
The arguments put forth in Pathological Altruism challenge these notions of the good by offering insights into how and why individuals can become too self-sacrificing or can do harm to the very people who are expected to benefit from prosocial efforts. By showing the mix of good intentions with themes such as hording, self-righteousness, and addictions that are taken to extremes, authors provide readers with a strong understanding of how people alleviate their own personal distress by trying to help others. Specific chapters offer varied insights into how altruism affects self-care, relationships, and civic engagement. Taken as a whole, the book helps readers better imagine how they might participate in civil discourse.

Why Spoil the Fun of Good Intentions?

This book offers a well-balanced sense of how altruistic acts can cause harm to the self, to any intended target(s), and to society at large. Although not organized into these categories, Pathological Altruism highlights the problems that can emerge when personal, civic, and civil agendas are left unchallenged...

Thus is a Federal Civil Rights violation on the 50th anniversary of Selma.

So Blacks are segregating themselves. The Democrats couldn’t have planned it any better.

When I was in high school in 1973, we all were called to the gym for an assembly. When we got there we were separated by race, whites on one side of the gym, and Hispanics (Chicanos is what they wanted to be called back then) on the other. Then Cesar Chavez got up and gave us a speech about supporting migrant farm workers and boycotting lettuce. No kidding! We all sat there thinking “What the hell?”

I’m sure the all-black participants at this racist event spent most of their time abhorring black-on-black crime. (S)

Segregation has completed the cycle and has come out the other side to.

Think that will help their cause?

However, it appears blacks taking other blacks’ lives is no big deal.

...Further conversations among and across other racial affinity groups shall take place at the high school in the coming months and into next year...

Suspend his lying @$$ without pay until they hold a white students only event, and then fire him.

An Illinois high school principal is defending his decision to exclude white students from a “Black Lives Matter” event held at his school.

Is the event paid for with private funds, or with tax revenue. Is it taking place on private property?

Rouse defended his decision to keep non-black students from the assembly by referring to the concept of “affinity groups.” According to the school’s statement, “Racial affinity groups are often used in learning communities to help facilitate positive identity exploration and provide people with similar experiences a space in which to pose questions and process topics.”

...

That sounds like something David Duke would like.
