While gassing up I heard two women on the other side of the pump
island, talking about schools. Both were black women somewhat
younger than I am. One I knew, she is a former teacher. The
other I learned was a former teacher who now evaluates failing
schools for the state of Ohio.
Former teacher said the problem she has found with the schools
doing badly is, they have overwhelmingly white suburban teachers
in majority black schools. The white suburban girls are afraid
of blacks, esp young black men and treat them with hostility to
keep them in their place.
The evaluator said she had found that to be typical in failing
schools throughout the state.
Thomas Sowell often spoke of a school in Washington DC, before
integration, that maintained results comparable to the good
schools, with a black student body and all black teachers.
Funny, Thomas Sowell probably didn't realize it, but he endorsed
affirmative action for school teachers.
