Under the guise of closing the “achievement gap” between students of European ancestry and those of African and Latino heritage, victims of a government school in Illinois are being put into classes segregated by race. Yes, really. Apparently, “education” officials believe eliminating all white students from class will help non-whites perform better, or so they say.
The explosive scandal, first exposed by the Wall Street Journal over the weekend under the headline “To Shrink Learning Gap, This District Offers Classes Separated by Race,” involves the Evanston Township Highschool in Evanston, Illinois. Lawyers for the district north of Chicago claim that because the white-free classes are optional, laws forbidding segregation and racial discrimination do not apply.
According to the Journal, almost 200 black and latino students have already signed up for the so-called “affinity” classes this year, with no whites allowed. White teachers are also barred from teaching the classes, with school district leaders claiming the non-white students feel “more comfortable” without having to be in the presence of students lacking sufficient melanin.
“Our Black students are, for lack of a better word…at the bottom, consistently still. And they are being outperformed consistently,” Evanston School Board Vice President Monique Parsons said at a November board meeting cited in media reports. “It’s not good.” White students are a minority in the district representing around 44 percent of the student population.

Teaching them to hate and blame Whitey for their self-inflicted failures.
Loser gotta blame somebody. I guess blaming “racism” will work.
This could be GREAT. In fact, put the non-whites in a whole other school. Like in Washington DC.
You know, to achieve "equity". But by doing it at the class level instead of student-by-student they may hope to escape lawsuit.
I think a better approach would be to simply abolish the public schools and start homeschooling instead.
In fact, have all whites be homeschooled instead.
Probably helps the whites, who get white teachers.
“Civil rights attorney” Patillo praised the segregation programs for “bringing more children together.” ?????
on the flip side, they are Telling the Whole world that they believe the black children are just stupid and need special help to learn the common things white kids learn.
You talk about BIGOTRY, right in everyone’s face
So catting around having multiple children with multiple men, raising a bundle of kids in a broken home and you wonder why test scores are low. You keep saying your looking for root causes, well here is a root cause. It ain’t racism, it’s your culture.
I’m all for segregation, so white kids can learn.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Unstinking real.
Make a Whites only class or an Asians only class and watch all hell break loose.
I wonder how many white teachers and students are secretly glad for this.
Everybody wins. What is not to like?
So….how do kids get the impression that some groups may be supremier than others get in their heads in the first place?
More people will be leaving the Chicago hellhole for Florida soon.
Maybe Democrats will give them separate bathrooms and drinking fountains too.
You’ll never fix racism by using racism.
