      From: hjkhjkhd@hhhh.com              ...the Trendy Left finally got what it always wanted:              The Times January 24, 2007                     Schools must 'confront the problem of marginalised white pupils'       Alexandra Frean, Education Editor                            'White pupils in areas where the ethnic composition is mixed can often       suffer labelling and discrimination, Sir Keith will say. "They can feel       beleaguered and marginalised, finding their own identities under threat as       much as minority ethnic children might not have theirs recognised.       "It makes no sense in our report to focus on minority ethnic pupils without       trying to address and understand the issues for white pupils. It is these       white pupils whose attitudes are overwhelmingly important in creating       community cohesion. Nor is there any advantage in creating confidence in       minority ethnic pupils if it leaves white pupils feeling disenfranchised and       resentful."       The report will quote the example of one white pupil in her early teens who,       after hearing in a lesson that other members of her class originally came       from the Congo, Portugal, Trinidad and Poland, said that she "came from       nowhere".'                     http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,591-2563000.html              ROBBIE              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
