Rev. Al Sharpton: President Obama's Education Initiative Unlocks the Gate for African AmericansPosted by Eric White of The Chicago Lawyers' Committee on Aug 13, 2012
While I do not question the need to improve the quality of education for black children, I do question the specific targeting of President Obama's new executive order. Not only do black children receive a poor quality education, on average, but so do Hispanic children, poor children, etc. Is there a way to address the quality of education for all students without splintering our efforts by sub-populations?
From Huffingtonpost.com
Acknowledging the significant racial disparity present in our educational system, the president's order is a significant game changer for millions of black students, their families and communities suffering from the impact of inadequate opportunities.
