When white people move in a slum and clean it up (replace the former occupants who destroyed the area) that is gentrification. To answer daniel's statement regarding the New York zoo, I mean school system, let me clear up a few facts here. In the "peoples' republic of new york city' to be a teacher you go to a college and take what is called teacher education courses, such as teaching methods for the urban child, inner city teaching techniques, blah, blah, blah. This degree was watered so down as to let a Kleion get a teaching certificate. One thing however went wrong, even though the teachers test is easier, if that is possible, than the test for the post office, the vast amount of africans are still unable to pass. Comrades in the union have made it near impossible to fire a teacher, as a matter of fact there are teachers and principals in jail, that have committed serious crimes that are recieving their full pay. About two weeks ago, there was a female santa ria priestess that was a school principal that spread chicken blood and spat rum or some other liqour through the halls of her school to cleanse the school of evil spirits, she was removed from the school and assigned 'desk duty', he measely salary was over, now sit down, 120 000 grand a year. Poor underpaid minority. It is also noteworthy to note that when it was found out that the teachers who could not even read the teachers' test were black, cries of cultural bias were raised and darkies and self hating white trash held hands in solidarity singing 'workers unite' or the 'internationa' the communist national anthemn. Another little ditty they love to sing is 'lift every voice and sing' the black national anthemn. You didn't know that the blacks have their own national anthemn? Shame on you. Here in havana on the hudson, every white, jewish, heterophobic politician has that song on their i-pod and proudly stand up in front of the white hating media and sing this tune just like uncle remus and uncle ben would do, with all the dignity of the bawana tawana banana kid, and who be the baby's daddie jesse jackson. If you want to see who we have dumbed things down so much, go to barnes and noble and take a look at the postal test. I will give you one of the questions, there are several like this"
Which one of these represents and address
a-555-1212
b-7732
c-1300 Main Street, New York, New York 11300
d-all the above
Yes that is a question and the blacks still fail at an staggering rate. The answer to this was that the test was cultural biased and that it favored white, middle class men. How to fix this horrid case of white oppression, lower the standards even more. How much lower can you make them?
The teachers' exam is even dumber. They have now instituted mentoring and remedial english and math for black teachers that have [/b] already graduated college and still can't read or write to conquer this horrid racism.
To further aid the blacks, we have dumbed down the tests for the police and fire departments as well as lowering the standards for the above positions, You can have a bunch of arrests and still be a cop. They also change the rule that you have 60 college credits to be a fire man and a cop, this has been changed. You can serve two years in prison in leiu of these requirements.
Yes, affrimative action, we need more of that.
