Tucson schools create race-based system of discipline

The board is calling for a two-tiered form of student discipline. One for Black and Hispanic students; one for everyone else.

With the goal of creating a "restorative school culture and climate" that conveys a "sense of belonging to all students," the board is insisting that its schools reduce its suspensions and/or expulsions of minority students to the point that the data reflect "no ethnic/racial disparities."

From the section of the 52-page plan titled "Restorative School Culture and Climate," subhead, "Discipline":

"School data that show disparities in suspension/expulsion rates will be examined in detail for root causes. Special attention will be dedicated to data regarding African-American and Hispanic students."

The board approved creating an "Equity Team" that will oversee the plan to ensure "a commitment to social justice for all students."

The happy-face edu-speak notwithstanding, what the Tucson Unified School District board of governors has approved this summer is a race-based system of discipline.

Offenses by students will be judged, and penalties meted out, depending on the student's hue.

Certainly, from the point of view of a public-school administrator, such a policy is beyond insane.

TUSD principals and disciplinarians (assuming such creatures still exist) are being asked to set two standards of behavior for their students.

Some behavior will be met with strict penalties; some will not. It all depends on the color of the student's skin.

I wonder if any of the kids are bussed in. Bussed in for "equality" and then treated differently.

Yeah, I was exaggerating. But this does have to do with race, because that is what the article stated. Racial groups will have their own system of punishment.

And what type of message does this send to all the little innocent white girls?

Sorry, exaggerating again.

hehe...that's some funny shit.

erowe1, by saying people judge each other as individuals, you imply what I said. If you agree that they don't and nobody is above racism, you should have no problem with me analyzing the influence of it and how calling only one group influence things.

BlackTerrel, 5 black people raped, mutilated and lynched a white couple. No hate crime. Minorities constantly get away with both hate speech and their crimes aren't subjected to the hate crime philosophy. You also have affirmative action and get away with racism.

Feds probe 'race-based discipline' policy

Feds probe 'race-based discipline' policy
Plan said to call for different punishments for blacks, white, Hispanics

The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights is investigating an Arizona school district's newly adopted racial policy that purportedly calls for a "two-tiered form of student discipline: one for black and Hispanic students; one for everyone else," according to a newspaper columnist.

As WND reported, Arizona Republic columnist Doug MacEachern drew attention to a decision made by the Tucson Unified School District's board over the summer to adopt a "Post-Unitary Status Plan," which includes the goal of reducing suspensions and expulsions of minority students to reflect "no ethnic/racial disparities."

"TUSD principals and disciplinarians (assuming such creatures still exist) are being asked to set two standards of behavior for their students," MacEachern commented. "Some behavior will be met with strict penalties; some will not. It all depends on the color of the student's skin."

MacEachern's column quoted a section of the board's 52-page plan titled "Restorative School Culture and Climate," subhead, "Discipline."

"School data that show disparities in suspension/expulsion rates will be examined in detail for root causes," the new policy states. "Special attention will be dedicated to data regarding African-American and Hispanic students."

Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne blasted the discipline plan Wednesday, according to the Arizona Daily Star. He admitted he hadn't read the plan but called it "abhorrent," warning that ethnicity should never be a consideration in disciplinary decisions.

"Either students have misbehaved or they haven't," he said.

"When you issue a decree that we want to reduce the discipline of minority students, you're sending a message to teachers that if they have a student who is misbehaving and who is in a protected class, then they need to treat that student more leniently."

That is an utterly ridiculous claim. In 2005 only a small fraction of 1% of all women got raped at all, by any man of any color.

those are rapes that were reported.
how many rapes go unreported?

 

[tonesforjonesbones]

I read that nonsense..and it's meant to inflame people. It's been going on for years. Does anyone think that the idea of protecting the minority has anything to do with race? Or does it have to do with votes on issues and government political decisions etc. Tones

Well, about half of the victims don't report, but half of the allegations are false. Hence the number is pretty accurate.

I don't get why they don't enforce perjury laws in the case of rapes and treat this felony differently. But this is another example of a protected class - women. It disgusts me that some moronic women think that patriarchy keeps me down and I need privileges to make it.

i think the white on white rape would be more common and underreported than the black on white rape, because whites are racist and most rapes are acquaintances.

Plus, there are lots of financial reasons for a woman to press charges for rape - falsely. Supposing I'd have the abysmal morality to do that, I'd rather do it against a white man since the gain would be bigger.

are you part of some anti-anti-rape lobby? i dont get these opinions. if you see the person that claims to be "TGGRV" at a meetup: watch out. they may rape you?

 

[Cowlesy]

The phrase that caught my eye in the original article was "Social justice".

There you have it --- directly out of the leftist handbook.

Like others have said, this will do more to divide and galvanize the students. The white kids are going to feel like the blacks/hispanics are getting special treatment, and the blacks/hispanics will take it as a sign that it's "not their fault" they act terribly, and will further justify their actions (not to mention they get off lighter).

Foolishness knows no bounds.

 

[tonesforjonesbones]

well the word is out now, and i guess if everyone turns up the heat they might change the rules to EQUALITY..what a concept. tones

You think that only 2000 women got raped in a country with a population of 320 or so million people? I mean, besides the stupidity of that claim, even though I know that the system is a bit screwed in the favor of the victim, that's impossible.

The population of the US is about 306 million people and the system isn't a bit screwed in the favor of the victim, the system is screwed a lot in the favor of the woman, unless, of course, we believe that the woman is always the victim and the disparaties between the treatment of women and men aren't that great within the legal system.

When the victim is a male the system is not screwed in his favor. What does the system do to recognize and address male rape victims, for instance?

We have specifically brought up cases of rape with male perpretators and female victims and nothing else.

http://www.ncvc.org/ncvc/main.aspx?dbName=DocumentViewer&DocumentID=32361

When we accept myths as truth they often minimilize the accountability of the perpretrator. That's probably why perpretrators that "don't fit the description" are held less accountable than the groups these myths protect. People should be educated with the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, no matter how ugly truth is. I'd rather know the Gruesome Truth than "sweet" lies. I agree with the person that says race, gender, name, etc. should be taken out of the equation and we should only be provided with the facts.

I agree. I said victim because in the vast majority of rape cases, the victim is female. It's not domestic violence, where women do just as much.

Nope. The rest of your post doesn't make sense.

Allot of outrage in the comments at azrepublic for that article and rightfully so. I suspect home sales will be on the rise on Tuscon. White flight.

I know we agree but you're not supposed to admit it.

Are you ininiuating that TGGRV would commit rape or are you asking if TGGRV would commit rape?

If the answer to either question is yes why would you insinuate or ask that question?

I seriously doubt whites are anymore racist than blacks are.
