This pretty much sums up the problem and disconnect. Allow the unqualified in, they struggle, artificially prop them up and what do you get? Bad lawyers, bad doctors, bad dentists, bad nurses, bad pilots??? Do you really want that Marxist Progressives?
And they are OK with combating PAST Racism with more PRESENT DAY Racism. Wow.
"This pretty much sums up the problem and disconnect." which all started with Affirmative Action.
If the chief of police (Baltimore, Detroit, etc) says that bulk of the offenders are black, he/she will be fired. Right?
Dear Americans, do you understand that America is headed in the wrong direction?
USSR? Cuba?

A high ranking BLACK Balt police officer was SUSPENDED when he called for an APB on a black young man who was described to him by a BLACK woman who just had her pocket book stolen by him.
His response after the suspension was, "why should we waste the cops time stopping white guys, when we KNOW it was a black man.
You couldn't make up some of the stupidity of some on the left if you tried!
If she is factually stating who her low performers are, it's truth and nothing more. Now, you can't even speak truth.
Is there a way she could have phrased this what would meet with your approval?
She should've known better. Just pad the grades of the lower performing students and get on with your career. Or do what she did and have no career. Intelligent people can be very naive.

In Md, teachers AUTOMATICALLY gets a RAISE when they get their Masters. Even later when the students do NOT perform better, they don't take the raise away.
LOL, The real reason she was fired is because she was concerned about Her black students possibly failing and wanted to do something about it, that is unacceptable to the far left, they need blacks to be poor, ignorant, and failures otherwise they may become successful, make money, and possible decide they don't want to be taxed into poverty...thus vote Republican.
The left has been quite successful in keeping blacks on the new liberal plantation for close to 70 years now.
Democrat President Lyndon B Johnson summed it up nicely. https://www.intellectualtakeout.org/...tic-200-years/
Asians were severely disadvantaged in the US for over a century and still scored highly throughout in spite of being segregated, kept out of jobs, etc.
Rich black people's kids score about the same as generationally poor whites' kids who have been disadvantaged to some extent too.
Perhaps it is time you look at culture and single parent homes instead of 100% buying into the culture of victimhood.
"Asians were severely disadvantaged in the US for over a century", and still are.
"Mayor de Blasio and Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza believe that this fair and transparent approach has led to too many Asian-American students in the specialized high schools."
"Fewer Asians Need Apply How the Ivy League discriminates against top-achieving students"
"He’s quiet and, of course, wants to be a doctor,” read the reviewer’s note on one application. Another said that an applicant’s “scores and application seem so typical of other Asian applications I’ve read: extraordinarily gifted in math with the opposite extreme in English.” Admissions staff typically ranked Asian-Americans lower than whites in “personal qualities” and repeatedly described them as “being quiet/shy, science/math oriented, and hard workers.” These comments appear in a federal civil rights complaint charging Harvard University with discrimination against Asian-American applicants."

Teachers in MD make a fortune. My friend earns $100k, is home by 4 pm, and has summers off.

Stop playing the victim and picking new mascots to push your agenda.
What agenda? That we have non-racist admissions policies?
Or are you implying something about Jews?
(Hard to figure some of you jealous leftists out.)
