The only reason I'm still in NYC is that I never had kids. I'd never sacrifice a kid to the political correctness and indoctrination of the city school system.

The bad part is when white people are denied their local school to meet an agenda and shipped to a bad neighborhood instead. There's no chance I would allow my kids to be sent to Curtis or Port Richmond for example so that all my hard work to keep them in a good, safe neighborhood is wiped out to meet someone else's anti-white agenda.

As someone else said, there's not enough white kids in the system to evenly "diversify" the schools, so many will have to be shipped outside of their own neighborhoods to achieve the racialists' goals.

And the exact reason we are leaving is because we did have kids.

Would you support the policy if the goal was fairness rather than diversity?

Being white has no disadvantage in this scenario. It's where students live that gave them an advantage or disadvantage in selective high school admissions, and it tends to correlate with race, but you can totally take race out of the equation.

The thread wasn't getting many responses, so I added "to reduce segregation" to the title, a bit of click bait lol. I think it's a good policy, and I don't have a dog in this fight.

I'd like to remind the readers of this thread that white students are a whopping 15% of our public school education system. Private or home school is the only way forward.

In the wokeist world of liberal democrats good neighborhoods are a problem. For there to be 'justice' we all must all live in a dangerous crime-ridden city. Bail Reform is all about spreading crime from the ghetto to the middle-class neighborhoods, though the ghetto areas are being hit harder by it.

Nothing will make me ok with this.

And it's NYC, so you can't take race out of it. My immediate concern is that they'll be moved to a neighborhood where the demographics are so strong that they can't be fixed simply by bussing kids OUT. That's the insidiousness of this policy. Bussing IN to my neighborhood is fine. No one cares about that anymore. But you're not sending my kids to a crap-hole, putting them at risk for all kids of crime, when I've worked my whole life to ensure they'd never have to be around that crap.
