I mean the NYTimes[0] gave a glowing interview to the creator/designer of AOC's 'Tax The Rich' on September 21 but never once mentioned that the designer owes a considerable amount in taxes in multiple states[1] which had been published 3 days prior by another newspaper.
> look to Hollywood to see unions like SAG, the DGA, and the WGA which exist to protect all workers from exploitation
Funny how those Hollywood unions knowingly let their "members" be sexually exploited by powerful industry figures and didn't say a peep.
Funny how those same unions let their "members" be exploited by abusive industry figures and shit working conditions for the entirety of their existence.
Eh,some people who work security/work in retail like to stand up for common decency in the neighbourhood and have a backbone so they confront the thief.
> Allowing your LP staff to use physical force is not going to solve retail theft.
Quite funny you should say that as I had just written this comment on the other related thread:
> I've been leaning more and more away from a global internet and back to regional EU only internet.
EU & US & every other region in the world are different.
> As it stands, the global internet is dominated by US cultures & laws.
> I think the internet as it stands inhibits Europeans forging their own path.
So for me personally, my then youthful naivety of supporting connecting the globe and freedom etc. has now shifted over the past 10 years to leaning towards an EU only internet.
> The Internet is being torn apart by governments.
The internet shouldn't be the international waters of the world and it shouldn't be the United States internet.
> Several of you have also asked where we draw the line on hate. We don’t allow titles on Netflix that are designed to incite hate or violence, and we don’t believe The Closer crosses that line. I recognize, however, that distinguishing between commentary and harm is hard, especially with stand-up comedy which exists to push boundaries.
Hmmm, strange I don't find that same level of boundary pushing content and critical commentary of black American culture on Netflix.
Oh right, his wife, Nicole Avant, is a black American.
Freedom of speech & wide range of opinion unless it's uncomfortable to him or his loved ones.
Whilst the main story of the focus is the case involving black kids, the story also details the case of a white kid wronged by this person.
If stats were available to show black children in general were targeted, the piece would have included them.
Including 'Black children' in the title is unnecessary other than one of the arresting officers in this particular case wondered would this(arresting/cuffing at school over being an observer) happen in a white school.
She's an idiot. She may also be a racist but the article doesn't provide any evidence for that.
I wonder sometimes if people ever read past the headline and first paragraph.
> The problem with the G&T program was that it did a better job of selecting for parental affluence (the ability to pay 4-5 figures for test prep for your toddler, and the time to navigate a byzantine system) than for inherent differences in student capabilities.
Spoken so authoritatively that I'm sure you have a source?
For the program to be racially segregated using your above definition(ignoring common usage), then the program itself would have to have separated the races in the program.
The NYTimes article isn't an 8 year old writing their first newspaper article using the dictionary to form sentences.
Their usage of the word is inflammatory and incorrect on multiple levels including your definition.
> What they did was to put schools and school zones in ways that happened to line up with strong demographic differences in swaths of the city.
Using geographic lines which correspond with race to determine entry to a school for which geographic location isn't a determining factor in success is racial segregation.
Giving the same standardised test and using the result of that test to gain access to a gifted and talented program is not.
from a linked ny articles in the OP article:
> On the exam, they are asked to finish patterns: For example, if children are shown a triangle, a square and a triangle in sequence, they are asked to name what shape comes next. They are also asked to solve simple arithmetic problems and define words.
I dont have the full test but any of the test parts I've seen do not in any way disadvantage native English speaking African-Americans.
This is devolving into California's "maths is racist" because black kids in California don't score as well as non black kids.
