In 2100, it is projected that 75% of the U.S. population will have Latino and/or Black, mostly the former. When Caucasian are the minority as projected, there will be many Caucasian who will finally understand and want not only ethnic studies for their heritage, but also Affirmative Action programs for Caucasian.

The Superintendent needs to get his head out of the sand and visit a school when "children" gather outside the classroom. His virgin ears will be raped. Most of these kids hear worse language in there homes than the lady read, and they use it within earshot of teachers and administrators who do nothing about it. Get real Dr. Pedicone!!!!

This school board consists of Ultra Morons. They have no sense, no intelligence. Dump this school board. Good Grief! Search out the author of that book and hang him high.

Could another "Red Scare" fly across the US? That in itself is a scary thought. . .

hehehe....racism is okay and beneficial for the sociaty if it comes from oppressed minorities

[generaldisarray46350]

Okay so what happened next? What's the follow up?  What was the response from the school board?

@generaldisarray46350

Based on the moron who asked the lady not to read aloud the words that HER children were required to read while school is in session, I would say that the chance of an intelligent response was more likely from a tomato than from the school board.
