“There's a lot of historical and systemic inequities that, if we're not going to address them, Black children are going to continue to fail,” Batiste said. "Sometimes I feel like every time we try, our hands are tied behind our back, and we're not being allowed to help the children that need help.”

EBONY BATISTE, a restorative justice teacher at 74th Street Elementary School in South L.A.

"The conservative groups would sit by idly when there are a disproportionate number of Black people in jails and prisons," Howard said. "They'll sit by idly when there's large numbers of Black students who are misplaced in special education classrooms. They'll sit by silently when there are large numbers of Black students who are not graduating from high school. But yet, when there's a remedy, an attempt to somehow respond, to combat that, then all of a sudden, there's this anger, and there's lawsuits. That's the part that disappoints. I just wish that we lived in a different political climate."
TYRONE HOWARD, UCLA Education Professor

tale as old as time.

even when we say fukk it and do it ourselves (rosewood, tulsa, etc) they still work to dismantle it (either violently or through courts.

Gotta keep fighting.

Funny how the The far right elites view black people a burden on society and in constant need of resources , yet they'd rather kill initiatives that would assist most black youth from becoming dependent on their so called "tax dollars".

I am certain tariq nasheed and other pro black militants will be outrage and angry over this right? The republicans and the right wing are surgically going after every avenue black people have to go into the middle class and improve their selves with precision, their ultimate goal is a society as it was in the 50s and 60s where black people played no prominent or dominant roles in the society and every single corporation or person in high position was run by white men.

"If the children have to suffer so we can have tangibles that's a sacrifice we need to be willing to make!"

There will be more of this.

Need to be more strategic and name things differently like @Mowgli said.

I would not be surprised if they go after organizations like NAACP next.

And expect any race-based scholarships that use any public funds in universities to be deemed illegal and unconstitutional in the next couple of years.

May even go after HBCUs.

Yea just rebrand and get an attorney to help change some verbiage.

Thing is if this is just the justice league who's advocating for racial injustice.

 

[ℒine ☈acks]

Conservatives calling the program “destructive” when it shows “positive results” for black kids. Conservatives dont want things that have positive results for black people.

Own everyone else’s resources but still wake up mad about something but tell everyone else to be grateful
