The state of New York recently passed a law requiring prospective school teachers to take a literacy test to get their license, but repealed it the following year because 36 percent of whites failed the test on the first try, while 54 percent of Hispanics and 59 percent of blacks failed.

In other words the State of New York is knowingly putting a large number of illiterate teachers in classrooms.

It would be racist to evaluate those poor illiterate teachers on the basis of results.

When I went to school students didn't have rights, they had responsibilities. The best teachers in the world can't educate the unwilling empowered student, who can bring charges of.....at the drop of a hat.
