Race outweighs Gender in differences
By George Milton

Clip to ScrapBook   
If you had a group of black girls and a group of white boys in the same grade, would you still expect quiter more academic girls? I wouldn't, based on my experience. In every school I've taught the anglo girls were easiest, then hispanic girls, then anglo boys, then black girls, then hispanic boys, and then black boys as the hardest to handle. And parents??? The two you should most fear: White suburban mom who "stays home with the children" and black ghetto mom who's mad, loud, & mean! If we want the easiest teaching job, we should opt for an orphanage with little anglo girls!
