It must've been tough for those blacks kids who first integrated besides the harsh treatment most of them were behind in the three R's

[@chuckleberryfinn1992]

and the level of academic proficiency you purport is based on .? The U.S Dept of Education didn't become a standalone cabinet level entity until '79, and the teachers union had not risen to the level of prominence at the national level ,- events which have had a deleterious effect on children's education we see today.

What a bunch of gaslighting. The 1954 Brown decision did not apply to all Jim Crow laws, over 365 state laws made across 15 states. The fact is it only changed the schools. Integration was never completed and “forced-integration” or forced bussing end in the 1970s by blatant and open segregationists Senator Thurmond and Helms. As a result 90 percent of schools were never integrated or desegregated. Tokenism was the way forward and is still the way now. Outside the school ruling of Brown, other areas were still segregated, like the institution of marriage, and that segregated institution wasn’t brought to the Supreme Court until 1967 with the Loving case.

But Southern states had the strictest segregation policies, especially as the 20th century dragged on

once again you see conservatives equating human rights and civil rights with communism.

[@ukaszczekaj7662]

Don't you see liberals equating human rights and civil rights with communism? Is equating something with comunism bad when anticomusist do it and right when communist do it?

[@bobapbob5812]

And John C. Calhoun, founder of the modern Republican Party, said that blacks were happy as slaves. You just pull this shit out of your ass.

[@bobapbob5812]

Conservatives have always, and still do refer to supporters of civil rights and human rights as "communists". Because their brains are too weak to think it out.

[@mrearlygold]

there can be no human rights without freedom, hence the obvious connection

[@Knaeben]

You can define "human rights" in a lot of sneaky ways. In Texas, retarded kids have a "human right" to refuse education, and hence save their caretakers from having to provide them with any schooling. He doesn't want to go to school (just like any kid) --> ok, let him not go then.
