There are studies proving if you give them a new school and new books and quality teachers, they still flunk and refuse to go to the white man's school. Exceptions are there, but not many.

It wasn't quite that bad in NY as far as I could see, and was in the inner city. I'll use Dr. Carson as an example. He is brilliant, smarter than a slew of White folks I'm sure. He was in an inner city, crappy schools, single parent home, no money and was becoming a delinquent. He mom read him the riot act and made sure he studied. He and his brother did very well. I believe his brother is an engineer.
Even children in poor settings can be successful.
Years ago when my husband was doing backgrounds for a sheriff's office for potential candidates, he would get their handwritten applications. They want handwritten ones to check their writting skills. Police have to write reports. Some were totally illiterate with English skills. They were not hired.
If you take a test and not do well, maybe you shouldn't be in that job regardless of your color.
People, especially on this site, complain about dumb cops. I agree. If you can't make the grade, you don't get the job. We shouldn't lower the standards to get certain people hired. I don't want a cop out there who is intelligence challenged. I want the best they can find.
The answer is not AA, it's better education systems for everyone. Better teachers, better pay. Better control in our classrooms.
Now Al wants AA in the Oscars. Dumb. They need to be selected on merit.
This is the rate of male and female blacks dropping out at a college.
Nobody can accuse the colleges of poor books or facilities or poor teachers.

Going to a white school in Ca, I estimate there were perhaps 30-40 blacks. So widely scattered I could go days and never see a black. I can't recall a class I took with a black in it.
My point is they had a unique high school. The school looked like a university. It was a proud campus. The school won a national award as being number 2 most beautiful campus in the nation.
The teachers were wonderful. I was the problem since to me a C grade was Cool so long as it was not in my pet classes. Call me lazy.
Blacks did not perform well at the school that I ever heard about. Maybe they did but I never heard. I recall one black that played on the JV football team with me and that dude was dumb. He could not remember any of the plays. We had to give him instant instructions. Once he took off with the football, he was pretty good. But he forgot the play he had just run.
strangely, i'll use carson as an example too.
he got into college via affirmative action, and he paid for it with pell grants and federal guaranteed loans.
then he got into med school via affirmative action, and that was paid for by a grant from usphs
of course, he would have died from exposure if the evil govt hadn't provided public housing to his family, and he would have starved if the ever more evil govt hadn't provided food stamps.
i'm sure he's smarter than a slew of white folks, and he wouldn't be $#@! without the govt's help and affirmative action.
you're welcome, benjy, try not to be such a hypocrite, m'kay?
Okay I have to say something else. I lived with gun shots all around me in Detroit. When vets come back with PTSD we have a helluva lot of sympathy for them--rightfully so. These kids in the inner city go through that same trauma but they're $#@!s if they can't overcome it and be business leaders.
And if we should die tonight
Then we should all die together
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
Calling out father, prepare as we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
Desolation comes upon the sky..
That is not Carson's story.
But this is.
