Barber and lessons of history
Tue, 10/18/2011 - 07:28 — carnyx“lessons of history, which insist that diversity and resources are critical to student achievement”
Rev. Barber has a serious lack of historical knowledge.
The lessons of history show that busing for diversity aka integration has been the most abysmally failed social policy since Prohibition. Consider the following:
1. Busing for diversity reached its zenith nationally in the 1980s.
2) Nationally, busing for diversity assured segregated schools by triggering white flight (and then minority “bright” flight) leaving in 2005 the proportion of black students at majority-white schools at a level lower than in any year since 1968.
3) In its thirty to forty year run, busing for diversity failed to narrow the achievement gap nationally and Wake County.
4) Whites are now a minority in Wake County schools and busing that may have worked in past decades when whites were 70 percent or more of the school population is more likely to spur white flight now. Whites historically have left the public schools when they become the minority.
4) True minority uplift will only come through minority self responsibility, self respect, and self agency. Where is the NAACP in this? Somewhere-sometime Rev. Barber needs to think about the need for minorities to assume some responsibility for reducing the achievement gap and the even more important behavior gap. That requires the reduction of maladaptive behaviors such as illegitimacy, crime, a culture of instant gratification, and lack of respect for learning.
The controlled choice plan seems like a reasonable compromise—although the busing logistics would be a challenge. The plan, that gives parents some say over the assignment of their children may well indeed keep a diversity factor in student assignments for say ten years before demographics drive all but the most defenseless and poorest whites out of the Wake County system. Then, the safety, security, convenience, and academic quality of neighborhood schools will be the only way to keep whites and Asians in the public schools.
The lessons of history.
