NATIONAL, INDEPENDENT BLACK PARENT CONFERENCE

1st NEW CHAPTER ORGANIZER CONFERENCE

What is the reason for the education gap between African-American students and white students?

 

The primary reason for the so-called “test gap” is miseducation which is being motivated by racism. In a recent Civil Rights Data Collection Report by the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, which accessed the entire state of our nation’s public education, it was found that disproportionate structural inequalities exist between predominately black and white public schools.

 

Black children are systematically miseducated because they get the youngest teachers, they get the most inexperienced teachers, they get the lowest amount of money allocated per student, they have the worst education resources, the oldest books, and the poorest learning facilities. So if a school district gives one group of students the worst that their district has to offer, but on the other side of town they provide the white students with the absolute best intellectual and material resources that the district offers, then there’s no way that the black students can catch up because they are being engineered to fail by design.

The test gap has nothing to do with intellectual potential; it only reflects the results of systematic miseducation and institutional racism.
