“Non-biological” can mean cultural, not just economical.

Definitely. But this is where C.R.T comes in and asks "why do we think certain demographics don't value education culturally?"

Uh, could that be because it just takes time (often measured in generations) for historically-ingrained attitudes to shift in a socially-beneficial direction? What a silly question. Mind you, the C. R. T. folks are the ones who keep telling us that having a "good education", "getting the right answer" and "being on time" are uniquely oppressive "White values" and that Blacks are just different.

Why do we think it's our business exactly? If some cultural groups don't value education, isn't that their prerogative? Why do we think we need to get involved in the interest of representation?

Sorry, I’m not familiar with C.R.T. What is their proposal?
