I've been watching Retro Report since High School. Thank you for continuing these short documentaries on subjects that young people aren't likely to find by themselves!
Thank you! You've made our day. As our education initiatives grow we hope to be in more and more schools. :) You can also connect with us on most social channels via @RetroReport
This shows that changing injustices takes a lot more than just signing a bill and making a law. It’s gonna take the right attitude from the people to really make that change happen
It's almost like we need our leaders to create the just laws and drag us into accepting those just laws and evolving as a society.
I’m from St. Louis and grew up in the awesome 80s and 90s. In the late 80s I was in early education (K - 3rd grade) and didn’t realize it then, but after I grew up I discovered I was one of those kids being bussed from the “inner city” to the largely white schools in the county.
My parents later transferred me to schools closer to home and let me tell you, the difference was astronomical!
You mean it was different on resources and level of education? Or just about race?
@@renataferreira8829 all of it! They all are variables contributing to the striking disparity in education quality 🤌

@@finefeatheredfriend9240 I am Brazilian and because of slavery, thr black population is in the poorer neighborhoods and in Brazil, is hard to ascend socially ( difficult to make money). But Brazil is morr about economical issues and not about race. Never existed this kind of segregation. Like different schools and places .. Is very hard to watch.
@@renataferreira8829 Interesting take. Racism and racial bias is more covert these days in America. Stereotypes of black Americans are persistent in the media and in real life which also contributes to the never ending cycle of inequality in all facets of life from economics, education, healthcare etc.
Even black people that are educated and financially successful still experience barriers and discrimination that our white counterparts simply do not. I’m a conspiracy theorist though and I believe it’s all by design and the way the “founding fathers” of America meant it to be, but I digress lol 😂
8:23 Saw an article some time ago (can't say where) claiming the US is more segregated today than ever before. Not by race, but by INCOME.
Fun fact: Thurgood Marshall sent his own kids to private schools. So did John Kennedy. And Lyndon Johnson. And Richard Nixon.
As a person of Romani descent, I went to a segregated school for Romani children in Seattle and this was actually in the 90s my family did not want me to go to a diverse school and now as an adult, I could see why I would never want to go to a school in some inner city
What is the name of the school?

Literally the only solution is setting a statewide standard per-student amount so that all
School systems get the same amount of money per student. But white well off parents would never allow that because why should THEIR money go to “those kinds of people”
Black students and non English speaking students receive way more money per student then those white people you speak of. With laws like robin hood funding that takes property taxes from white communities and sends it to poor minority schools because they don't have a tax base. Also the federal government gives the majority of federal education dollars to non English speaking students and kids on free or reduced lunch. Any kid coded with a learning disorder also gets more money per year and black students are overwhelming coded and on free lunch. Then in the name of integration poor minority kids are put in white schools to help hide their horrible test scores and inability to read or do basic math
Brown v. Board of Education didn't break its "promise." The only thing broken is the racial attitudes exhibited by the cultural majority of the US.
