To those that take the stance that it should be integrated into our educational system, how does that look? If we take a step back and peel back the layers, we can see that this method would be a hard sell. Looking at current times and current climate in our country, many are attempting to downplay slavery and eliminate any form of teaching African American history. Please take a moment to fill out this short survey after each segment or after you've listened to the entire episode.

At one time, the United States of America boasted of the very best educational system in the world. However, of late that system has declined precipitously; we now rank about 10th worldwide. And consider this statistic: A full seventy-five percent (75%) of African American and Hispanic students attended school in schools or school districts that are considered failing. This means that within an educational system already rapidly careening toward crisis, African American and Hispanic school children are already perhaps there. But how did we get where we are now? What can we or should we reasonably expect from our educational system? What can we do to fix our educational system, or at the very least, make it work for us? Join us as we consider these and many more questions and issues as we discuss "Public Education and the Minority Community."
