Our schools are failing because we are going away from teaching the basic education that schools should be concerned with such as Reading, Writing, Math... this "cultural crap" is NOT what needs to be taught at schools!  Students need to be taught the skills that will make them self-sustaining citizens in their communities.  They need to know how to earn a good income, manage their money so they don't have debt and pay their bills!  All the other "stuff" related to race, gender, sexuality, etc. does NOT need to be "taught" at schools.  We are all a people capable of achieving goals and accomplishing much if aren't weighed down with doubt of "maybe I can't do this because I'm ____fill in the political correct term______ unless I have equitable help...." We are undermining a person's true abilities when we implant in them that they are unable to achieve anything without the white man's help.  That's non-sense.  There are strong people of every color that don't need help in being truly successful.
