Oh yes, incredibly racist. Milo Yiannopoulos puts it best, I wish I could remember his quote verbatim but it goes like this... You have helped young black boys and girls get into classes they have no chance of succeeding in because they don't have the base of knowledge needed and that's why Black student retention is so low.

I haven't seen that one yet, but I've seen that any "pick a country, serve their food" day is racist, incorrectly making a dish or failure to use traditional ingredients is racist and not serving "appropriated" food is also racist.
I swear some people are just f*cking retarded. It reminds me of my friggin mother when I was a kid, if she told me to clean the house and I didn't she'd yell..if she told me to clean the house and I did she'd still find something to complain about.
People just want any reason these days to shout racism. But of course when the racism benefits them you usually don't hear a peep.
Not sure if you guys realize this, but it's the education system in America that has failed minorities. I lived in Canada during my formative years and I can tell you that the education is different there than it is here. I'm not proud to say this but I've made friends here that have gone to college, and still have difficulty spelling words that most 7th graders would have no problem with. Some are Black, some are White, and some in between. I actually think that the problem stems from the highest offices in the government, and the blame does not, or should not rest solely on the shoulders of the people that are actually teaching minority students.
As we speak, Newark, New Jersey has a problem that has been in existence for at the very least 20 years. Their schools water supply is contaminated with lead. I'm certain that I don't have to remind anyone about the hazards of what ingesting lead daily could do to people? Especially children. When asked about the problem, there were actual statements made that the problem was known about for years... FOR YEARS!!! But, no one was willing to do anything about it. Should minorities stand in silence or should someone be held accountable for this bullshit? What does that say about an entire generation of children that were contaminated by that phucking water? Was it planned as some sort of sabotage by the powers that be? If it were in an affluent community, how would this have been handled? For phucks sake, I came to New Jersey to attend a funeral about 15 yrs ago, and there were heroin addicts, and junkies littering the streets. It actually reminded me of several scenes of the Walking Dead, but these people were alive. One mans lips were as white as chalk. That's how strung out he was. The government didn't do a phucking thing except round these people up, and throw the ones that weren't shot to death due to inner city crime into jail to ride out the symptoms.
Now that it's happening in the suburbs, everyone has to do something, because people are phucking dying, but when it happens in the inner city it's no big phucking deal. Then I see people making comments about the best person for the job bullshit. Let me tell you about my phucking experience, and I'm only 50% Black. I worked at a Config center and the only reason that I got the job (even though they sorely needed people) was because I went to school, got amazing grades, and was even A+ certified (among other certs that I possess) just for shits and giggles. Then I turn around just to make a friend who happened to be White, and find out that not only did this guy not go to college, he never even graduated from high school, he wasn't certified, but there he was making more money than I was. Let's all cry on each others shoulders about how phucking unfair shit is. Has anyone bothered to check out the statistics on how much women make compared to men? How about how much money minority men make in comparison to White men? Oh it's not fair, someone is getting extra phucking points on the SAT's, which in the end doesn't even phucking amount to a hill of beans in the real world. But let's take over the inner cities like we're phucking Lorne Greene armed with tranq darts to subdue the savages.

I don't get it, this is an upper level class too.

None of what you just said means the bar should be lowered for certain races though. The other thing is people can't whine about racism in this country while at the same time BENEFITING from god damn racism.
The wage gap between men and women is more or less a myth, you realize this? No serious economist says it is a thing? Look it up. Go watch Milo Yiannopoulos talk about the "wage gap". There are videos of it on youtube. For instance statistics show women take off work more then men do and that is even true if you remove time off of work due to pregnancy from the equation. Just like on average women tend to work less hours then men. This is a CHOICE though it is not because people just give men all the hours, women on average will not choose to work as much and will take off work more, so why is it a shock that they overall earn less? If you could truly actually pay a woman less then a man for the same work then WHY the f*ck aren't people hiring nothing but females? Businessmen are greedy little shitheads, it's why so many illegals find work.
Also not sure if you realize this, but our education system has failed a LOT of people, not just minorities. But we are still left with the sad reality of the bar shouldn't be lowered for someone just because they belong to a specific race. Yes, even if that race is in the process of utterly destroying it's own community with drugs and gang violence.
I have not read through all the post, so I'm not sure where the conversation has gone. But I have just recently watched an episode of Jeopardy and one of the categories had to do with "black authors" and these were not obscure authors but several well known. But the contestants were not able to provide the "question' to even one of the "answers". And I had always felt that "culturally bias" was just bullshit...but apparently not.

Just so I'm understanding this correctly..you are saying the fact people didn't know the names of black authors shows there is a cultural bias?
Do you feel a majority of blacks in America would of been able to give the correct answers? I'd be quite shocked if you did.
Originally posted by tru-marvelltbf most people don't know many authors outside the few greats (Hemingway, Shakespeare, Twain ect) and while they are all white that has far more to do with antiquated culture than anything to do with today.

Also to your first point, most vocal proponents for "culturally enriching the dialogue" are stupid people who got a degree in a field with no possible job opportunities like doctorate in African folk music or a degree in south Asian pottery.
