Don't you have to have a teaching certiicate to teach anywhere? I don't know. My sister was getting her teaching certificate in NJ- then she did her student teaching and decided it wasn't for her afterall. It's been many years since I was in school and I have never had any children in the system, so I don't really know. My only impression has been that perhaps the teaching standards here weren't as high as in other places and that when changes to raise the standard were proposed, a lot of people shot them down.
I know I have being listening to this narrative of racism most of my life, even though I grew up in the North. I'm not denying that racism exists, but I think that after the civil rights movement, things did get better for people of color, but it didn't happen overnight. I lived at work through the quota years and the EEO years and then everyone hated it because it wasn't netting the best qualified candidates and in some cases, the candidates were totally unqualiied and then were unhappy because they really couldn't even learn the job. I've seen military people that were passed along because of some quota. I don't think that has anything to do with equality. The opportunities are out there for black people but they are so busy blaming racism on anything that doesn't go their way they can't see them.
