So no advancements have been made? This is what I found on the first page of a google search.
http://nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pubid=2003034 The proportion of Blacks completing college increased between 1975 and 2000; Black high school graduates completed more academic courses in 1998 than in 1982. A higher proportion of Blacks attend college than 20 years ago: in 2000, 31 percent of 18- to 24-year-old Blacks were enrolled in colleges and universities, up from 19 percent in 1980. The proportion of Blacks enrolled in colleges and universities out of all Black high school completers increased as well, from 28 percent in 1980 to 39 percent in 2000. http://www.jbhe.com/vital/ Total number of African Americans enrolled in American law schools in 1990: 6,791 Total number of African Americans enrolled in American law schools in 2004: 9,435 Looks like good things are going on to me. How about you? My family died fighting for the freedom of slaves. What have you done lately? Oh, I forgot, you live in Trinidad. Minorities in America have it better than they did 100 years ago.You can't show me that they are worse off than before. They have more opportunities than ever. You CANT deny that. I agree that things are still screwed up. I just want to see more minorities take a stand and do some thing. Not just complain about how bad they have it and blame white America. This is fun. >:-] On Thu, 27 Jan 2005 15:39:27 -0400, Angel Stewart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Your specious argument about whitey not offering anything doesn't help your > case either.
