An elementary school principal in Michigan is under investigation for authorizing a field trip last week for 30 black students to meet with an African-American rocket scientist. Students who are not black were excluded from the outing -- a possible violation of a state law that bans racial favoritism in public schools.
....Earlier this week, Madison tried to quash the controversy by sending a letter home to parents, in which he wrote:
“In hindsight, this field trip could have been approached and arranged in a better way.
"But as I reflect upon the look of excitement, enthusiasm and energy that I saw in these children’s eyes as they stood in the presence of a renowned African American rocket scientist in a very successful position, it gave the kids an opportunity to see this type of achievement is possible for even them.
Yes, nothing quite "dazzles" like a black rocket scientist who achieved that label by virtue of race quotas and lowering admissions standards.
Funny how that "achievement gap" is still hanging around in spite of the fact that our society has literally turned itself upside down and inside out in an attempt to bring Whites down to the level of non-Whites.
How many hundreds of billions of dollars has been spent?
How many state and federal sponsored programs over the past half a century?
How much history has been re-written?
How many studies have been scrapped and destroyed?
How many truly gifted Whites have been thrown to the trash heap to make room for colored peoples who can never achieve even the slightest accomplishment worthy of the titles they've been handed?
How much damage has been done?
And still...... that pesky reality of racial differences keeps getting in the way.
The saddest part is to wonder at just what we could have accomplished if not for all of the time and money thrown away on PC projects destined to failure.
Space exploration could have been much further along.
Diseases cured.
New forms of energy supply developed.
Etc...
Etc...
We have literally thrown away our future.
