the better choice is full scale education reform, addressing systemic racism, an understanding of how privilege affects educational outcomes,

This would likely help, which is why if I'm not mistaken conservatives in the U.S. are opposed to it by lambasting it as "woke Critical Race Theory". A significant part of the wealthy, and career political class views systemic racism and privilege as foundational, protected rights for which the nation was established to maintain.

That is, of course, contrary to the fact that those elements were only preserved as a result of compromise so that the nation could exist at all, and not because they necessarily wanted to preserve them, give or take those founding politicians involved.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
