it's kinda patronizing to black people.

If I was black I would be very offended that the NY Times thinks it is better to patronize black people rather than be honest about the real problems in education, so that black kids can have the same educational opportunities, and attain good jobs by merit rather than skin color.

Every intelligent and talented black person ive ever known finds this shit patronizing. Your skin color doesn’t prevent you from working hard and achieving anything you set your mind to. This bullshit discounts those hard working guys achievements. Ask Clarence Thomas
