Stuff White People Like (About Kids & School Reform)

From the blog, Stuff White People Like: 

Gifted Children:  "White people love “gifted” children, do you know why? Because an astounding 100% of their kids are gifted!  Isn’t that amazing?"

Foreign Languages: "Generally, white people prefer their children to speak French. Languages such as German, Spanish, Swedish, or Italian are also acceptable, but are considered to be poor substitutes (especially Spanish)."

Non-Profit Organizations: "They like working there for a number of reasons, the most important of which is that it gives them a sense of self importance."

Knowing What’s Best for Poor People: "It is a poorly guarded secret that, deep down, white people believe if given money and education that all poor people would be EXACTLY like them."
