Getting Mad
I prefer not to know about bad things I can't fix. Sometimes, though, unwelcome information sneaks by my defenses. The other day I read that in all of Hampton Roads... that is this urban southeast corner of Virginia... only 16 black male public high school seniors have a GPA of 3.0 or better. Further, less than 50% of all black children graduate from high school. These problems were attributed to teacher prejudice against blacks. This was so ridiculous that I chose not to believe it. Since then I have learned that these statements are true.

Where are the parents? They should be up on their hind legs, demanding a public purge of purtainant personnel.
