BALTIMORE: education genocide...the destruction of our Black children...
Posted by educated gm on 9/25/2023, 1:15 pm
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE IN 21st Century America, especially Black America?
ap-- None of the students at 40% of Baltimore's public high schools tested proficient on the state math exam given this past spring--with a staggering three-quarters earning the lowest possible score, an alarming report revealed this week. [9.23]
Not only that but, "NO STUDENT PASSED THE MATH TEST AT 13 BALTIMORE SCHOOLS." ...how the hell is that possible? And rest assured these are overwhelmingly Black kids - OUR KIDS! This is educational genocide by any definition! We hate our children, don't we, otherwise how do you explain this shit?
NOW GET THIS, those same schools are busy educating our children about Gay rights, Trans identity, and Drag Queen culture. SMDFH
Dear Black folks, we are doooooomed. Amen
Re: BALTIMORE: education genocide...the destruction of our Black children...
She argues that the cultural framework of the country (U.S) has, almost since its inception, dictated that "Black" is bad and less than and in all arenas "white" is good and superior.
Anyway, on a very high political level, battles continue to wage about who should be educated, how they should be educated, who should be taught, and what parts should be assessed, etc...
And as these battles are waged at the political level, I think most AAs students leave their schools prior to graduating in four years. Many also leave school unable to read critically, with diminished self-confidence, and with limited trust in most American institutions. Oh definitely, Kris is present on this, and plays a role on how to properly manage the "percentage" of Blacks who could/should get a high education and become successful in life, but on the other hand he will put a spoke in the wheel of the majority of AAs students.

Yes, this is happening all over the nation, GM, with Baltimore at ground zero. A culture, a matrix, has been created around African-American youth that leads them to think that negative culture is their lot.
The framework can be broken with a new thrust of mass media aimed at cultivating progressive thought. But of course, the Tennessee/Florida-type Legislatures and white supremacy advocates are actively fighting to maintain the status quo.

"A culture, a matrix, has been created around African-American youth that leads them to think that negative culture is their lot."
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! And sadly, as in the case of the common use of the N-word among our kids, there are some Black intellectuals who would have us believe that the youth have turned the n-word into a term of endearment, especially if it's spelt with an "a" at the end. Such madness! And of course the mainstreaming of gangsta Rap with violent, vulgar, and misogynistic lyrics debasing Black humanity and culture.
We need a massive Black Consciousness movement STAT. And we need another authentic Black Messiah and he/she better come quickly! Amen

I get a kick out of the neofascist response to the Maryland bill that was passed having students educated on gay issues. Even the corporate media is in on the attack. They say that the schools have been 'forced” to teach students about them, LOL!!! Notice the word “forced” is used instead of “requiring” to whip up anger. Does forced sound familiar to anyone here? Remember forced integration during the civil rights struggle? forced busing in the 70’s? LOL!! The tentacles of white supremacy reach beyond race. The same playbook and jargon of the white supremacist is used not only in the fight against racial equality and integration but also in the fight for gender equality and the recognition of human rights for gay people.We all need to fight back!! Stand in solidarity with our gay brothers and sisters!! The Black Panther’s had it right when they stood in solidarity with them and Cornel West is continuing that good fight. Vote Green in 2024!!!!! BTW, little known under reported fact on the Maryland bill: Maryland parents are given the choice to not have their son or daughter attend this class.

Re: BALTIMORE: education genocide...the destruction of our Black children...
The thing with the Gay issue, Maestro, is that most humans on this earth whether Buddhists, Hindus, Voodooism, White supremacists or Muslim supremacists or any other supremacists for this matter do believe that man having sex with man or woman having sex with woman is just NOT natural. Thats where the problem lies.
But when it comes to race(skin color) these same racists or White supremacists have come to an understanding recently(although they might still hate you for it) that no one can choose his/her race, so in their hearts they kinda agree that race is as natural as it gets. They see skin color as more of a natural factor than seeing two men having sex with each other. If Obama was gay they would've probably been more pissed off at him for being gay than being Black. They could even accept a woman before a Gay man or a Lesbian.

Re: BALTIMORE: education genocide...the destruction of our Black children...
Buddhism, Hinduism, and Haitian voodooism do not view homosexuality as a sin. in fact in Hinduism, many of their dieties are depicted as trans or homosexual. Homosexuality in Haitian Vodou is religiously acceptable and homosexuals are allowed to participate in all religious activities. In the two Buddhist countries I have lived in, they had huge numbers of transexuals, and they were accepted for the most part. As for the earth's population viewing it unfavorably, growing numbers in polls in many countries in Europe and the US, reveal that homosexuality is now acceptable by a majority of people. Further, your mistaken assumption that homosexuality is merely a choice is absurd. I never woke up one morning worrying that i might choose to donn a dress and high heels. Did you? I doubt it. we don't choose our sexuality. Study after study is now showing brain size and functioning are completely different in the LGBTQ folk, theone. Even if it were a choice, which it is not, no one is harmed when some dude prances around in a dress. Or when two guys fall in love and get married. what's the beef? No harm No foul. And no it is not infectious. Ive seen many drag queens. In fact, i believe i told you that i had three in a volunteer art class that i taught. They were were very cool people. i did not nor did any of my other students get the urge to change sides. LOL!!!!

Re: BALTIMORE: education genocide...the destruction of our Black children...
I remember very well having a discussion with you around this Homosexuality issue and I have also made it clear to you(I guess you forgot) that I have never confirmed that homosexuality is a choice. All I said in my post above was that most humans on this earth(as you see in the map below) are not ready to see two men kissing each other and getting married, they are not ready to accept it as a natural thing.
Additionally, even within countries of Europe and North AMerica where growing numbers of ppl are now accepting homosexuality there is still however a significant number of ppl in these same countries who find homosexuality unacceptable, despite anti discrimination laws being put in place in order to protect homosexuals. I'm sure racial discrimination is against the law in the entire state of Mississippi, but i'm also sure that there are still racists Whites in the entire state of Mississippi. LOL!!
Like I've told you before Maestro, there is no single gene responsible for a person being gay or lesbian. There is no "gay gene", and there is no "straight gene". Sexuality is just complex. Sexuality cannot be pinned down by biology, psychology or life experiences because human sexual attraction is decided by all these factors.
As for homosexuality and religions, Maestro, it really depends,..coz its not always the religious books it's also the ppl's interpretations,...and as you may know in the last 10 years the conflict between lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, activists and religious groups has escalated alarmingly in the world including the United States.
Re: BALTIMORE: education genocide...the destruction of our Black children...
Thanks for your clarification on choice. Yes theone, i, too, believe human sexuality to be extremely complex, and to erroneously believe that it is as simple as picking and choosing is absurd. Homophobes always use that defense. However, every sane human realizes that to be false because of their own human experience. No one awakens one morning and has a problem deciding if they ought to wear a dress or pants, shoes or heels. LOL!!!
