Teacher Qual Test Racist??

[Spare_change]

A federal judge in New York has struck down a test used by New York City to vet potential teachers, finding the test of knowledge illegally discriminated against racial minorities due to their lower scores.

At first glance, the city’s second Liberal Arts and Science Test (LAST-2) seems fairly innocuous. Unlike the unfair literacy tests of Jim Crow, LAST-2 was given to every teaching candidate in New York, and it was simply a test to make sure that teachers had a basic high school-level understanding of both the liberal arts and the sciences.

One sample question from the test asked prospective educators to identify the mathematical principle of a linear relationship when given four examples; another asked them to read four passages from the Constitution and identify which illustrated checks and balances. Besides factual knowledge, the test also checks basic academic skills, such as reading comprehension and the ability to read basic charts and graphs.

Nevertheless, this apparently neutral subject matter contained an insidious kernel of racism, because Hispanic and black applicants had a passage rate only 54 to 75 percent of the passage rate for whites.

I hope one of the questions is if they believe in evolution.

Why? You think that an African-American would disavow their monkey momma?

If they do, they shouldn't teach.

Anytime a black can't keep up with a white it must be because of racism.

They don't, and they do.

Be afraid.

If I had a favorite corpuscle meandering about my endocrine system, it might be you.

But it ain't.

this is what happens when you have shit schools where minorities live

they have to pass or it's racist and the leftist system has failed them

so they go to college, the college knows they don't know enough to even get in, but they are leftist and are part of the problem, so they take them, pass them, and then give them degrees.

now they apply in a leftist state, COLLEGE GRADS WITH DEGREES, can't pass basic HS tests, so the test is declared racist so the system itself is not questioned.

So, these dumb fucking twunts will be sent out to teach kids that know just as much as them, therefore they won't learn more and the system declines even further.

a viscous evil cycle to destroy America from within.

you leftist are doing a great job

Raises a question for me, "Isn't 'liberal arts' prejudicial against conservatives? Can't there be a 'conservative arts' too? Or more neutral term?
