You know, the original article did not say "a black kid." And that's good.YES, thankfully. But the original poster felt the need to make it an issue. And unfortunately there are a LOT of sites (mostly left leaning) that are mentioning he's black for the sole purpuse of bringing up race in a story that has nothing to do with race. This should instead have been a story about "a kid" beating the odds at a very marginal (compared to other school districts on Long Island) school district, of which William Floyd has dreadful stats when it comes to those who even make it to graduate, much less go to any college. THAT is the story here. |
