“The NAACP Has A Plan To Overhaul The Nation’s Charter Schools”

A NAACP task force that spent several months traveling the country learning about charter schools released a report Wednesday with the group’s conclusions. The report comes less than a year after the civil rights organization controversially passed a resolution calling for a moratorium on the growth of charter schools last October.

[…]

Over 3 million children in the U.S., about a third of whom are black, currently attend charter schools. In its previous call for a moratorium on expansion of these schools, the NAACP expressed concerns that charters perpetuate segregation, subject students to overly harsh discipline practices, divert funding away from traditional public schools and face weak oversight. The new report does not back down from these assertions.”

All race all the time. ‘Charter schools perpetuate segregation’. Even though a third of the students attending them are black? Harsh discipline? According to whom? Boo hoo.
