Killer Mike Vs DJ Envy

[MikeyC]

Envy been a chump. Giving us Dominicans a bad name.

I went to both.
It's good to be well rounded.

You are not a good advertisement for going to both public and private schools making one "well-rounded"

 

[UserNameless]

How so? Some simple things to do...

• Choosing to keep your child in a majority Black school
• Critiquing school curriculum
• Making sure their Black children are being taught and know about Black History -- and learn about them year round.
• Volunteering time
• Working with other parents to make sure children have school supplies, books, etc.
• Working with programs to get technology updates/donations
• Fighting the district to make sure your school is getting the same funding as others.

Those are good things in and of themselves, but I also think a bit idealistic and for a lot these parents' situations, unrealistic. Too many of the kids going to public schools are coming from single parent homes which is a problem in itself. The parents don't have the time or means to implement the items you mentioned. In addition often enough these same parents aren't engaged with their children's education to begin with. Which creates a negative environment within the school and classrooms. I never will forget walking into the cafeteria my first day in high school, seen a lot dudes draped in red on one side, and a lot draped in black on the other side. Made for an interesting school year.

Granted I got by and am doing alright, but nobody should have to experience that. Not to mention for the parents that are capable of affording their children something better, it's unfair to criticize them for sending their kids elsewhere. Some of these schools and even communities can be viewed as lost causes. The old saying, "you can't save everybody" rings true, and we usually apply that saying on an individual basis. Here we're talking about an entire community though. At the end of the day folks got to look for themselves and their own children.

Public schools would be better without charter schools stealing money...

A bit idealistic.

I’d honestly rather home school my kid then sit him in an overcrowded classroom next to a child that is misdiagnosed as ADHD. And put on a one track path to prison.

Our kids deserve better, but it will take more than what your suggesting to accomplish that. Even As noble as Your suggestions are.

Until we band together and make EDUCATIONAL EXELLENCE the STANDARD in our community, I can’t get mad at people who choose better for thier child.

How can you send your child to a majority black school when most middle class parents don't even live in majority black neighborhoods. There's a lot of parents out there. Black parents that would rather pay the extra money to live in the burbs. So if you wanna go to a majority black school, you have to live in the black neighborhoods which most black parents dont want. Everyone doesn't live in Atlanta or DC. Don't get me wrong, there are wealthy African american neighborhoods (Hyde Park in Chicago) but everyone doesnt live in those neighborhoods.

Aint no black kids becoming no billionaires Envy



Envy is lost man.

 

[Family Lives Matter]

A grown man should be able to send his child to what ever school he wants to without judgement.

They both dumb

Yes. If you care and have connection to that same school and area. I dont want my nieces, nephews and cousins going to a all white/majority white private school - when they could go to one they see children who like themselves at -- and be taught by people who look like them.

Black schools are closing all around the US - one has to fight and help to keep them open. Black teachers, principals, etc are unemployed and underemployed because of it.

Again, I dont mean to bring this up - but you are not Native Black American - therefore you probably never lived in an black community with a deep connection and ties to it --- especially in the South or Mid-West.

It's a different thing when your grandfather learned how to read by one of the first teachers in that school on his free time --- in exchange for helping the students learn how to grow vegetables. Or your family left the South -- and for the first time was able to go to a real school - instead of working in the fields.

It's more than just an "ass" education for many.

I agree with him probably never really being connected to a black community in America. But that doesn't have much to do with his being an immigrant.

@Igq3metamela (I don't know his name) is part of AA gang and he never lived in a black community or neighborhood.

Even his description of how he grew up in the DMV was in one of the whitest most wealthiest areas in America.

Which is Why he moved to Canada With his White babymoms and her family.

Point being not all AA have a connection to a black community. I know several AAs who moved to white areas soon as they got some bread.

At my my corporate job there are several AADos who did not grow up in black neighborhoods.

so move together and make those neighborhoods.

I can tell you from my experience that I can't do public school. for me, they do too much teaching to the test. They drill nothing but reading and math in the kids and fail to incorporate science, social studies, arts, music into the curriculum. I hate the fact at we are judged by these standardized tests. Teachers jobs are on the line if students don't pass these tests. Kids are being passed along, not being challenged at all. NO homework. For me, public school is nothing but a babysitter for my kids. Again, that's my experience. If i could send my kids to a top rated academic school that is majority black, I would do it in a heartbeat. But I'm in Minnesota and those don't exist. For me, it's private and charter school for elementary. Then hopefully HBCU for college.

Cant stand Envy

i have a strong opinion about the topic and I STILL feel more inclined just to say I can't stand that nikka Envy.

 

[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

I log out and see quotes from nikkas who have been on ignore for 2-3 YEARS.

Keep it classy, my sons.

Let me put y’all on game.. The fact that we pay taxes our public’s schools should be better but we all know our taxes go to other bullshyt

Only time your kid is getting a quality to top notch education in a public school is if you live in a zip code where the property tax on average is about $15k to $20k and over... otherwise your sending your kid to private school... those two dynamics have curriculum on classes that team finances, shop, aviation and automotive classes while providing class A high school sports vs public schools that get minimum funding and have shyt curriculum standards

Slept on post and def some facts. A lost part of it are the teachers also. You have teachers that go all out for the student and some that are . I went to both and experienced the good and the bad at both types of institution.
