 While gassing up I heard two women on the other side of the pump
 island, talking about schools. Both were black women somewhat
 younger than I am. One I knew, she is a former teacher. The
 other I learned was a former teacher who now evaluates failing
 schools for the state of Ohio.

 Former teacher said the problem she has found with the schools
 doing badly is, they have overwhelmingly white suburban teachers
 in majority black schools. The white suburban girls are afraid
 of blacks, esp young black men and treat them with hostility to
 keep them in their place.

 The evaluator said she had found that to be typical in failing
 schools throughout the state.

 Thomas Sowell often spoke of a school in Washington DC, before
 integration, that maintained results comparable to the good
 schools, with a black student body and all black teachers.

 Funny, Thomas Sowell probably didn't realize it, but he endorsed
 affirmative action for school teachers.
