It's not that we are caping. We are calling out their use of Ad hominems. Don't be fooled by them.

They only talk about Umar's credentials and such because they don't want to discuss other issues.

There's layers to this argument. Make sense now?
Got any useful school design information beyond the bullet points on his go fund me?

Metrics, deep dives, goals and how they'll be achieved, Q&A, panels with other scholars?

They are involved in it. Welfare reform, charter schools and the TFA model, all that shyt.
Interesting. From what I've seen, the right are the ones pushing work requirements for welfare and trying to slash funding. I hear you on the part about working across the aisle but I've always looked at that as more of a misguided attempt at trying to compromise with the right.

This is my last post in this thread. Y'all do y'all. Good luck.

And I'm still waiting on that timestamp.

Perhaps, but in the process of that "compromise," Democrats are able to get things through that harm us (and the working class more generally) that Republicans could never get through by themselves (unless they have majorities/supermajorities like they have now).

Something that comes to mind immediately is what's been going on in Chicago under Emanuel, a Democrat mayor. Covering up police terrorism against us and closing record numbers of schools :scust:

Well I spent the morning watching thesis defenses regarding education. They were able to come up with pretty comprehensive packages in under a year.

So it made me wonder, what does Umar have out there?


If you don't have an answer then you can just say that. Your current line does make you look good though.

I agree with you on this matter. Now what?

Will you provide a time stamp? Or will you admit you misquoted him?

:manny:Trying to start a K-12 school based on racial separatism and homophobia just isn't going to work in 2017.

:lolbron:Unless you're a Southern Baptist. They could probably pull it off.

He needs to answer these questions open and honestly or he can stay in the bushes.

He came up with a figure of 4MM. That came from somewhere. It shouldn't be hard for him to show it.

Regarding his education credentials, it's a point of contention and trust for many potential investors or parents if the school gets off the ground. He should be willing and proud to show that off instead of all this, "look me up" or "people are trying to discredit me" rhetoric.

Show and prove and keep it moving.
