And then also click the provided link, which leads to a summary of the report, claiming that "this is unlikely to reflect teacher prejudice, but availability of 'gifted programs' in predominantly black schools".

In which case, the solution is "fund more gifted programs in schools that lack them", not "defund existing gifted programs".

Which is kinda what the article's author started to argue but never quite got there in the end.

No fair actually reading the source material, we're just here to yell at each other fruitlessly and solely on the basis of our preexisting ideas.
