Eventually, the community will become dominated by only one race. This is intentional and doesn't only occur because of "white fleeing". This occurred in the 70's when whites left certain areas. Now whites stay where they are, and more blacks, hispanics, etc move into the area, while other whites do no move into that area. This is how a community will slowly become dominated by one race. ]]> 2017-05-18 14:37:09 UTC https://padlet.com/allyssa_reynolds860/jyw0h74a7npv/wish/172597462 allyssa_reynolds860 https://padlet.com/allyssa_reynolds860/jyw0h74a7npv/wish/172599824 Downs, Kenya.

Mostly African American and Hispanic students are bused from their neighborhoods in low-income, urban areas to attend mostly white schools in more affluent, suburban areas. But busing isn’t very popular. Some people declare it’s too costly, too forced, and too uncomfortable for everyone. And even on the buses, students unconsciously separate themselves.]]> 2017-05-22 23:24:21 UTC https://padlet.com/allyssa_reynolds860/jyw0h74a7npv/wish/173262023 allyssa_reynolds860 https://padlet.com/allyssa_reynolds860/jyw0h74a7npv/wish/173262433 Quinlan, Casey.

Teachers could be valued and payed more. The idealsim of "ghetto" and "ratchet" could be dissassociated with all African Americans. ]]> 2017-05-22 23:32:47 UTC https://padlet.com/allyssa_reynolds860/jyw0h74a7npv/wish/173262651 allyssa_reynolds860 https://padlet.com/allyssa_reynolds860/jyw0h74a7npv/wish/173262830 Boteach, Rebecca Vallas and Melissa.

Many houses are ran down and abandoned. There are very few prospering businessess. The nearest mile is at least 15 to 20 miles away. The education is bad. Teachers are ujnable to teach effectively because of the students. Some teachers don't care enough. Many school districts are closing down because of unflourishing funds. Many people are moving away for a better life. The students, ourfuture, need better help and guidance.
