You couldn't eat at most restaurants because there was nothing vegetarian on the menu. And everyone knew meat was good for you. Being vegetarian is becoming mainstream and society is changing to accommodate it. Public schools will one day be forced to accommodate self-schoolers. But it's irresponsible to encourage black kids from the ghetto to drop-out of school.
School is the only chance they've got.
After getting through that year we began to experience the disaster of the public school system. There, I was told that Sean had Attention Deficit Disorder and we should put him on Ritalin. He was also given an IQ test and we discovered that he had one of the highest scores in the school. The typical white upper class view is that the poor and black and Latino people have behavior problems and the way to help them is to sit them down at a desk and teach them to act more like us. Wait a minute.
