Finland For Thought:
"Finnish schools often have Christian events at public schools during Christmas time. During these events, the handful of dark-skinned kids and “weird” Christians (Jehovah Witnesses) are removed from the rest of the group and given an “alternative event”…

“Christmas church services for schools have a [Christian] religious content, and for this reason the children of Islamic background are provided with alternative events during these.”

[…]”If the school party contains the Christmas Gospel texts, then this part of the proceedings is done first. At this point those not belonging to Christian faiths are outside, and then subsequently come into the hall and bring their own greetings.”

Is this what we want to be doing to our children at schools? It’s time to celebrate, so let’s segregate the kids - They probably have enough time integrating as it is. And we wonder why there’s problems with racism and religious biogtry later in life, could it be that Finland’s public school’s are sinking it deep into their skulls at an early age? Sure, the non-Christians aren’t forced to leave the room, but nevertheless, that’s what happens."


Ja Newmark's Doorin kautta:
"you should read about the new "white flight" from some California schools. Includes this devastating observation:

Stated bluntly, white liberals will object strenuously to school choice and racial segregation as long as their children are in the majority and among the top performers in school. However, when their children are fewer in number and relegated to the lower tiers of academic performance, they will happily embrace school choice and voluntarily segregate the public schools by moving to whiter school districts or sending their children to private schools.
