Society: We have a black child here who is under-educated compared to other kids
Me: Wouldn’t his eduction be a reflection of what importance his parents put on education? Isn’t it the job of a parent to make sure their child is being educated and so it’s their fault mostly?
Society: No it’s history’s fault and the school’s fault
Me: Um, ok, then maybe we can scrutinize some of the elementary, middle, and high schools in his area in terms of their curriculum and the fact they are passing kids who shouldn’t be passing?
Society: Nah, we are just going to lower the qualifications for his college and for his job and push him through under-qualified
Me: Gotcha, solid plan, this will fix everything
