The summer after 8th grade, I started taking summer school classes to accelerate the pace of my education. That summer, I took the required "science" class. It was fun and informative. The school was predominantly white and latino. That summer, we had one black male in the class. When the 2nd test of the session was returned, the sole black in the class claimed the test was "racist". It was simply too hard for him. My reaction was along the lines of "WTF"? It was a dirt simple test. If you can't do that one, you're way over your head in here.

At least the parents of that black kid put him in summer school to try and help him. He just didn’t want the help.

Folks, I am not a rocket scientist, but can someone explain how a test can be racist?
