Creating minorities with no skills whatsoever

High school kids in Oregon won’t need to demonstrate basic competency in reading, writing, or math, in order to graduate. According to Oregon’s Education officials, such requirements are unnecessary and disproportionately harm students of color. You know at some point, our diploma is going to end up looking a lot like a participation prize. Except the kids don’t actually show up at school to participate. I see in New York they have a 36% truancy rate, but it may be prejudiced to make them go to school and learn something. Like a skill, or to read, or write, or to function as a human being, or make a positive contribution of any kind. I don’t know if liberals understand how they’re hurting minorities. An unwed teenage mother recently said, “If you have no skills, and the only thing you can produce is a baby, that’s what you’ll produce.” In a weird way I understand her reasoning.
