The problem is when you start trying to pigeonhole people into groups (aka identity politics) it causes a shit fight and divides people literally into factions and groups. I am soooo sick of identity politics... Also content in movies and TV that is always diverse to prove some misguided point. Hate it.Honestly when it comes to stuff like that while there is merit there in some respects some of it makes sense or is understandable or well there are some folks in lower incomes both white, black or from minorities in general or otherwise and whatever circumstance that don't have a chance at higher opportunities for whatever reason or higher forms of education...... equity shouldn't discriminate on any level from that sense when it comes to education IMO. Kids in America deserve the best the country can offer no matter what their color or background is.
And this is coming from a guy who says either reform or get rid of the Department of Education and a sensible standpoint.
IMO in general aside from DEI which is seeming to look like a lost cause, an effort should be made to identify people or groups black, white or polkadot or whatever that are undervalued so to speak that need or deserve help or assitance vs looking at someones race or color as a determining factor as to why they are receiving help.
There are plenty of kids out there with a lot of promise and potential and kids in general stupid or smart deserve an opportunity at a good education and a chance at life but maybe for those who stand out and are undervalued efforts should be made to foster their education and ability to fulfill their full potential.
I really do feel Americas youth and children in America today deserve better in terms of education and IMO that is the most important thing or one the most important things today that not many really care about aside from using as some political football most of the time on average.
Treat everyone the same as long as they are legitimately and legally in the country. For those who come in illegally for opportunistic reasons kick them out.
Re: too much immigration that needs to be tackled too - but needs someone with enough balls to say enough is enough. Then plan for less growth (in revenue via immigration increases) by cutting costs in government like Trump is doing.
