    I’m going to be honest with you, mate, I can’t really make out what you’re meaning very clearly from the pictures. The scale and coherency is off between each picture, and the school ratings one specifically is sort of scattered enough that I can’t tell much of a trend beyond more orange than green in the middle bottom with some random blue everywhere.

      Systemic racism at work - and just one of the many reasons why DEI policies are necessary. The best schools are in the white communities while the worst schools are in the hispanic / low income areas. Just an example of one locality in a country that contains many such examples.

      I’ll point out also - a lot of people wonder why the hispanic population voted for trump in such large numbers. Well this is a reason. They are badly educated. All of these policies to defund education over the years have been squarely aimed at them and other minorities.

        Throwing up random graphics doesn’t really help educate anyone

          Nothing about these graphics are random. In fact that’s kind of the point – I’m sorry it went over your head.
