Black students are segregated into a Black-only homeroom, given a Black counselor (only available 2 days a week, as opposed to full-time counselors). I could go on, but you get the idea. The effect on Black students is they see themselves as others, as do the rest of the students. Every student views conflict, bad grades, or setbacks through a lens of race, and resigns themselves to predetermined outcomes that can only be combated through Crucible-style accusations, rather than self-assessment. Many parents are not aware of the extent to which segregation is being re-instituted in the name of equity.
