Africentric alternative school in Toronto

Africentric..........give me a friggin break.........say it like it is..........it is nothing less than racial segregation. In Toronto the graduation of blacks from high school is less than 60%, so having a school dedicated to teaching them black history is going to help them how? This school is going to isolate black youth in Toronto where racial problems are already a concern..........Public meetings in Toronto showed that many were in favour of this "Africentric" school as it would help the "disproportionate number of underachieving black youth" It is to help the black students who feel misunderstood in the public system.............funny thing is, black leaders in the community of come out against the school. According to the Toronto School Board if it is successful it will be open to all races..........and if it is a failure, and if the student failure rate at this school is the same as before..........then what spin will the advocates of racial segregation come up with as to why it failed...............no one to blame but themselves.
