My comment about white guilt (because its obvious it went over everyones head) was to point out the fact that when whites are confronted with black ideas like this, they feel that any chance of them being perceived as racist influences their behavior and makes them actually stand up AGAINST things like this in defense of "interracial" schools and education.
White guilt is very much responsible for when whites stand up in opposition to things like this.
Did a white man come up with this idea? No, but whites are in this thread and in the streets claiming "im not racist, i would never support segregated schools."
and that is very much white guilt, it doesnt have to be a compassion policy.
You guys should read Shelby Steels book:White Guilt" maybe THEn youll know where I am coming from.

I am of the mindframe that public schools isnt where Id send my kids, and if you dont want to send your kid to the afro school, send them somewhere else. Public schools are not good anyway.
