New Political Thought Vol.3
As far as the conservative side goes, the Republican Party has definitely stepped up its game in the past few years. School vouchers are a good idea, but like affirmative action kind of puts a band-aid on a huge gash. Nary 30 some odd years ago Virginia shut down some of its public schools rather than let black students attend. This legacy will not be corrected by a few token vouchers to a few token students- we need to think on a larger scale. A further fault with the conservative school of thought is that black folk would get ahead if we just worked harder- which is really laughable when you think about. The descendants of free laborers groups upon whose blood the economic foundation of this nation was built don't work hard enough? Negro please
