So we were having a discussion in class today about schools that have been started for specific races of people. The main examples were Black schools in Toronto, and First Nations schools in Edmonton.
What do you think about the issue?
I think if a school is specifically segregated by race, it does foster racism. I think its one thing to have a religious school, generally they will accept anyone, but just aim their curriculum around their religion.
I think it is definitely racist if a school turns away a student if they aren’t “black enough”.
One student said she thinks its fine if it makes the students more comfortable, but I disagree on the point that when they get out into the real world its not going to be segregated.
If you operate a school in a predominantly black neighborhood, but accept anyone, its okay. If you have one white kid who grew up in the neighborhood and knows all the kids, and then has to go to school in another neighborhood how do you think he’s going to feel? I gaurantee he’d be more comfortable in the black school even if he is the only white kid.
I’m all for gearing your curriculum towards your culture or religion, but by splitting it by colour is definitely racist in my opinion.
What are your thoughts?

Okay… So for awhile I wasn’t bothering with the blog ’cause I was sick, but I’ve been better for weeks now, so I really have no excuse anymore. So here’s a little peak into my life right now…
I’m in the last few weeks of class of fall ’09 semester. I dropped my Linguistic Anth class ’cause I just don’t get it.
Christmas is a few short weeks away, that is crazy, where did the year go? I can’t believe we have been living in Calgary for 9 months already…
Anyway, I know everyone only comes here for pics, and since they take 18.73 years to upload on the MRU wireless I’ll just get to it. Also I lost my train of thought and forgot what I was going to write about lol
The bunny enjoying his nap outside the library window by my feet right now…
Saw these adorable puppies at the pet store the other day. Italian greyhound x Boston Terrier… So adorable… Indy needs a brother for christmas right?
Periscope Cat
Intense Chinook, was seriously like huge black clouds in the chinook, covering half the city, and then the most brilliant light and clear sky on the other side… This pic doesn’t really do it justice…
And we’ll end with the best picture of the week. Morning Light on the EB building on Monday morning…
Also I’m going to attempt to participate in DePhoMo again this year…
DePhoMo is December Photo Month and the idea is to take and post one picture every day for one month. We’ll see how it goes this year, I’m usually good up until the week of christmas and then I get distracted.

I know I should be studying…
but i just had to note this…
It is snowing… Its been snowing for like a week. They keep saying its going to be like plus 18 again in a few days, but I’m starting to think they’re just trying to be optimistic because they keep changing the forecast and dropping the temps…
Anyway… I was late getting going this morning cuz I forgot that I needed to shovel the sidewalk, so I drove to school, and paid $10 for parking for the day… and now it begins…
My first Prof was half an hour late for class…
My second prof emailed early this morning to say she was cancelling class…
Then I got an email that says my 3rd prof is also cancelling class…
SO I paid for parking all day to attend class for 20 minutes…
I’m kind of annoyed, but I guess at the same time now that I’m here I might as well suck it up and do some research for my term papers or something…
Also I’m pretty sure this is the beginning of winter and this snow is not going to be going anywhere… Which is lame cuz I was hoping to have one more decent day to finish cleaning out my flower beds…. STUPID winter!
This is the view over my shoulder from where I’m sitting.
