Gblock;1381227 wrote:im surprised that people are surprised...it has only been like 50 years since blacks were allowed to go to school. thats one generation. you still have pockets of people in this country who have never had access to education and are caught in a terrible cycle. this woman likely doesnt know any better and was raised by someone likely less educated than her.

but as far as stereotypes go..there are plenty of caucasians in wva, kentucky etc that are in a similar cycle and suffer from the same lack of education and access.

I do think its getting better tho, one family at a time. it just needs more time

i get the purpose but i guess if you knew some of these students and what they get done while someone is watching and hounding them, i have serious concerns about what they actually get done and the level of the work they would be able to do on their own



Standards have fallen. The blame lies with the teachers, but also with the parents/students for being huge ****ies.
