Would you answer my question, how will this new democratic candidate if president, help education for black people? You made the comment about charter schools and public schools as to say these entities are not up to par.
Biden and Trump were in office, that's 8 years combined, do you think the education for black children/teen and adults has gotten better in those 8 years? I would say it's gotten worse, from elementary, to middle school, high school and college. HBCU Funding is not the best.
In your statement, you made mention again about the public school system and charter schools as to indicate that these sectors need improving. Neither party did such. I stated that neither party hasn't done anything to make right about these sectors for black folks going back to slavery. I ask, how will your candidate improve the education f
Attach filesor black people in this country when your, the democratic party, nor the republican party hasn't done it in the last 400 or so years?
This is why I asked what state you live in and I said that you need to broaden your political spectrum.
Education is run by the STATE. Not the POTUS.
The affects on education are more heavily influenced by the STATE than the federal government.
Asking which POTUS candidate would make education for Black people better skips past how education is structured in the United States.
I live in Ohio. We have Republican Governor and a Republican controlled State house (House and Senate). Public schools are actively being defunded by Republicans here. We do not have state wide free lunch. That means even if you are poor, your kids do not eat school lunch for free. You have to pay for every single meal.
It cost us $20 per week to feed one child school lunch. We have 4 kids in school. It's $80 per week just for them to eat the same school lunch we had as kids. You know what it looks like. It's the same type of food we had as kids.
On average, childcare cost about $1,500 per month in Ohio. That's on average. For us, daycare cost $2,200 per month. We have one kid in daycare. She's 1 so she's going to be there for at least 2 more years.
So in my state of Ohio, it cost on average $2,520 per month for school lunch and daycare.
Democrats reduced the cost of childcare in Ohio. Under Democrat leadership, Ohioans would've paid on average $700 per month in childcare. Republicans repealed that.
Democrats approved and implemented free lunch. Free as in $0 and your kids eat. Republicans (you guessed it) repealed it.
So when it comes to things like education and childcare, things are drastically different under Republican leadership and Democratic leadership and this is just on the State level. On the national level, things are drastically different there too. I won't get into all of the specifics but let's juts say similar to the examples I just laid out that Democrats and Republicans differ on education and childcare.
Now, ore specifically on Black people. You noticed that I did not point out any single race in those school lunch and daycare numbers right? That's because there aren't different rules for different races like a lot of niggas ant you to believe. There is no national Asan free lunch or Jewish free lunch or even a statewide Latino free lunch or childcare.
None of these things are "awarded" to any race specifically yet you have a lot of Black people asking what democrats or politicians in general are going to do specifically for them. The problem with that mindset is that asking that tries to eliminate Black people from our democracy as if we don't belong or that we can only have things a certain way. It's an empty argument that is designed to lead us nowhere but divided.
