What They Don't Teach in Textbooks About School Integration

[@robertlewis5439]

What they also don't teach is that newly desegregated schools would only hire white teachers. All the black teachers who previously taught in segregated African-American schools were not hired. This led to generations of students, of all colors, who never saw a black teacher. I never had a black k-12 teacher, and I graduated in the mid-80s, though I had a couple black college professors. This history is still living and affecting education today.

Facts!

[@swannoir7949]

I had ONE Black teacher my entire elementary and high school years, and that was my Trigonometry teacher in the 11th grade. In elementary school, the only Black person who worked in the entire school was one of the office secretaries.

[@andrebryant9847]

The only black teacher I got was an African math teacher I went from K-12 1999-2011

I grew up in Jersey City,New Jersey during the early 80s and all my teachers were African Americans including the Principal and Vice Principal.I thank God I grew up in the North because I gained a good education from Prek-Highschool.I currently home school my children because the public fool systems hire majority white female teachers in predominantly black communities of Georgia.

You should be your child's first teacher.

[@candyadams-frazier1759]

Why did we want segregation? It has ruined the black “race”! I went to an all black school in D.C. then transferred to a Montgomery County middle school (father died in 1969, moved to Maryland) that was integrated. The school was 2 years behind my D.C. school. Back then, black teachers cared about you getting a good education; students had respect for their teachers and administrators. I’m glad that I experienced an all black school first. I am trying to get my grandchildren to go to HBCU’s instead of majority white schools. Many of us value green over black. A big problem!

This is brutal.

[@BjtheLawyer_]

PBS just did a documentary on desegregating Boston Public Schools. So don’t forget to highlight desegregating schools was rejected in north & south!

A movie needs to be made about Gaines, who won his lawsuit in the Supreme Court, but disappeared, and was never seen again. These cases shows why Affirmative Action was important. Somebody also needs to remind the Asian community of that?

[@johnjackissorryinfrench7777]

Exactly! This was defacto pro-white Affirmative Action, which was violently defended and people literally gave their lives to reverse Jim Crow. I am disappointed and sickened by the Asian led campaign against America's perpetual "soft target". The black population. The Asians just hopped on the "anti black" bandwagon completely sidestepping the legacy admissions scheme.

[@lightingbolt8148]

Okay lol

[@duanejackson4430]

The only question during segregation era when Brown vs The board of education was ruled unconstitutional. Why didn't President Eisenhower signed an executive order cutting off federal funding to all those states who resisted the Supreme Courts Ruling? If he did that I guarantee those states would have gotten in line. Without federal funding for states can't balance or pass their budgets when the fiscal year comes around. President Eisenhower should have cut off their all their federal funding until those states came to their senses.

Need our reparations 😞😞😞😞😞😞!!!!!!!

[@feministnewsnetwork3742]

All I know is growing up, Blks had their own photography shops/cleaners/butchers/carpenters/doctors/accountants/bakers & after integration, it all left & there wasn't pride in service, just over priced take it or leave it service that other groups provided** We need to bring back the power of the blk self-economic standing communities we once had with PRIDE* But when you do, You get treated like the Africa Family or BP got mistreated*

[@Mathilda5xp]

@feministnewsnetwork3742. How are the 'African' family treated?

Sadly, not much has changed.

[@Dani-gb9wg]

Huh? How has not much changed. The Supreme Court reversed plessy v Ferguson. Separate but equal is not legal and has not been for decades!
