So in schools that have mixed student populations the Black, White, Asian, and Hispanic students perform statistically the same since they go to the same schools and get the same quantity of funding?

That's not actually observed..

Here's a Local community college graduation rate. Chosen because the vast majority of the students will have come from the same school sytems with roughly the same funding levels.


MTC Graduation Rate: 10%

The Midlands Technical College graduation rate for first-time freshmen who entered the college in a full-time, degree-seeking status in Fall 2010 and graduated within 150 percent of program time was 10 percent. Graduation data rate by gender and race/ethnicity is provided below:

Gender:

Male 9%
Female 10%

Race/Ethnicity:

American Indian or Alaska Native  0%;  
Asian  17%;  
Black or African American  2%;  
Hispanic/Latina  19%;  
White  12%;  
Two or More Races  0%;  
Race/Ethnicity Unknown  19%

What does this data infer?

Why don't you tell us what you think the data infers?
While your at it, tell us your stance on the whole subject in general.
Or are you as chicken shit as the others? Or maybe just scared to make a fool out of yourself like Robert E.

Answer the question instead of insulting others.

Without knowing the demographics of the student body as a whole (rather than just grad rates)  it's hard to infer much outside the point that for one reason or another the students don't finish their programs. Perhaps they're transferring after getting their GE credits, perhaps they're dropping out.

But if blacks make up two percent of the student body, a 2% grad rate would be above average. Do you have baseline data?

No,
you are reading it wrong. The School is about half black as is our community. My daughter goes to school there.

Not sure how I was reading it wrong, as you didn't provide that information to begin with. Did you expect me to know that, without knowing where you live, what district she attends, or what the demographics are?

Perhaps -- just perhaps -- you simply didn't provide enough information to answer the question you posed.

And since you're posting numbers, let's get some support for them. What's the school's name, what's the community's name? Let the readership here delve the data.

The RATE of graduation is markedly lower not the school make-up,

Okay. Can you supply demographics for the school in question? You seem to have good info on the graduation rate, certainly you've done your homework and have a link I can peruse to see the overall demographics. Please supply the baseline data that was requested, so that readers here can decide for themselves.

Skin color should not have a segregating effect on graduation rate. I'm sure that it doesn't, it is a chosen culture that does, a chosen attitude.

Ah, is that it, then? Tell me how you're so sure that it's a choice.

I suppose you guys know about Kelly Thomas, a homeless man who was beaten up and murdered not by one police officer, but by about 5-6. I don't suppose because he is NOT black, right. I have searched this forum and nothing about police brutality against people. Strange really.

Here is the video and just for information, the video is 33 minutes long, and it showed the tramp/homeless guy being compliant and not giving any shit to the police officers (not like others who go out deliberately to look for a confrontation) and then he asks a question, and from then on, it was inevitable that he was going to get a beating of his life. This part lasted for 17 minutes and the guy apologised for what seemed like an eternity, but they couldn't care less. What could they possibly fear from a homeless man who has no gun, no knife and who gives the impression that he doesn't want a fight or any trouble. Guess what happened to the police officers involved.......? #hislifedoesnotmatterbecausehewashomelessandwhite

The action starts at 15:00 minutes.

If those guys in that particular image actually sat down and thought things through, they would realise that they would be good for sign language. Damn!!! I didn't know they were fans of Coronation Street and their inspiration is noneother than:

A very informative article, which surprises me (coming from the BBC too, which has a left-wing bias) a great deal.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/6128466.stm

How about this video where the cops couldn't be bothered to help those being attacked.





If that had been white on black, it would be described as a "hate crime." Typical pack mentality and people wonder why they get shot.

Another race hate crime, this time against an 18 year old "girl", because she was an easy target.

I'll never forget the story of Kriss Donald, as mentioned in that article. He was killed by Asian thugs merely for being white and it took many complaints to have it labelled as a hate crime.

Disgusting.

But no doubt we'll have the usual lefties around here spout the white privilege nonsense.

I'll tell you why bella. For decades, we have been conditioned to think that race hate crime happens to only one race. This is done for many reasons, but one of the major reasons is politics, just as it is here in France. If a major politician is seen to be doing something when in reality he/she is not even bothered or neither cares, then he will get the  votes necessary from the minorities. In the United Kingdom, there have been many race hate crimes against all races, yet, Kriss Donald is the first person to die because of a race-hate crime and that was 2004. It makes me question as to the real number of race hate crimes against white people over the last three decades, and how many were either:

1. Brushed under the carpet by the police.

2. The aggressor actually claimed he acted in self-defence because he was a victim of a racial slur. Again, attacking someone because of a name is not defendable in the court of law. Our prisons would be chock a block should everyone attack each other because they were called a moron, a dick, an idiot, f*cking cnut, inbred, tosser, Chink, Paki and  and all other insulting names. 

Racism is kept alive by progressives and the pc brigade. If racism no longer existed, they would have nothing to do in their spare time.

Well, it was the same white privilege that managed to raise millions for famine relief in Ethiopia, which was started by two white dudes. Then America followed suit, because at the end of the day, as long as they are selling millions of records and being thousands of miles away, why should they care. If it wasn't for Bob Geldof and Midge Ure, Stevie Wonder and others besides would NOT have even known about the famine simply because they were living in a bubble.

#BlackLivesMatter activists are not victims of racism, they are perpetrators of racism. That is why they reject “All Lives Matter” and insist that only “Black Lives Matter”.  Every victimhood excuse made to defend this racist disdain for other races is a lie. The truth is that to black nationalists, only black lives matter. #BlackLivesMatter means that non-black lives don’t and that is the root of its racist violence.

In a nutshell. Any form of nationalism is racist, regardless of skin colour. To be honest, we can liken the blm to the KKK, since they are both nationalistic and care about race. Furthermore, they should stop using racism as an excuse, and simply get off their backsides, assume their responsibilites just like other ethnic minorities do, and provide for their families. It is incredible that many generations of black people in the United States have had time to make successes of their lives. However, the Chinese, the Koreans, the Indians have all had to pay to get to the United States and work hard for what they have. Perhaps it is time for the black community to stop blaming the whites, and look at the state of their own communities and take a big look at other communities, how they function, how they deal with problems in a positive way and do something about it. I have never heard a Chinese person, a Korean, an Indian or whoever else complaining about police brutality on a grand scale, simply because they took risks in securing a foundation for their families. Once that foundation was in place, there would inevitable be stability for the future generations to come. This is why I salute those from Asian backgrounds, who were victims of racism, yet it didn't stop them from ignoring it and making them hate. No, it made them even more determined to make it in the United States. The same can be said for the United Kingdom or France, where Asians, in spite of being in a minority are actually doing better than their black counterparts simply because of different ethics, different family values etc. The victim mentality is the only thing holding them back, and they will continue playing that card until such day where no-one wants to hear it anymore because it has got so boring.
