Black-Focused School in Toronto

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servl.../National/home


Although they call it black-focused i would bet money it will effectively be an all black school. Way to set the clock back 70 years Canada.


This kid seems to have the right idea though:

"There's no need to make a whole different school for just black people; you can just make certain programs in regular schools and get them focused there," said Jamaal Thomas, who was making his way to class yesterday."

Reverse discrimination. It's just as bad as putting up a "whites only" sign in the window of the corner restaurant.
