concern. In recent years, school districts have worked aimlessly to narrow or eliminate achievement gaps in classrooms across America, yet are seeing little if any positive increase. There is a large achievement gap in the area of children of color and white children in many schools. Unfortunately, this educational concern dates back to World War I, and we still battle in equality and funding of schools. “Funding schools as if all populations face the same problems and had the same needs is an…

skin color and assume they come from a particular culture. That’s how a lot of people get insulted and don’t want to speak to you. Ethnicity defines what you believe in and where your ancestors can from. People should not be classified as black or white because there are many different ethnicities such as Latino, Muslim, Russian, and many more.

Get some deodorant.” and “Going to Africa. Hope I don’t get AIDS. Just kidding. I’m white!” Because of her offensive comments, an individual responded back to Sacco with, “How did she get a PR job?

It is not often that a white male can consider himself a minority. However, throughout my life, the way I view the world has absolutely been rare. I was born in a small, rural county in southern Pennsylvania and have lived there since. The county fair and the fall festival are the only “exciting” things that occur every year.
