My pointing out the problems minority students experience even in private schools, illustrates that even when parents attempt to leave failing public schools there are barriers to quality education. How do solve this issue? I think we all agree that education is the key to combating poverty and crime.

Hmm interesting reference to black wall street, however wasn't this community the exception to the rule? Where not most minority communities economically disadvantaged?
As far as Marcus Harvey is concerned his political beliefs where actually closely allied with the KKK. He in fact says so himself.
"Garvey recognized the influence of the Ku Klux Klan and, after the Black Star Line was closed, sought to engage the South in his activism, since the UNIA now lacked a specific program. In early 1922, he went to Atlanta for a conference with KKK imperial giant Edward Young Clarke, seeking to advance his organization in the South. Garvey made a number of incendiary speeches in the months leading up to that meeting; in some, he thanked the whites for Jim Crow.[34] Garvey once stated: "I regard the Klan, the Anglo-Saxon clubs and White American societies, as far as the Negro is concerned, as better friends of the race than all other groups of hypocritical whites put together. I like honesty and fair play. You may call me a Klansman if you will, but, potentially, every white man is a Klansman as far as the Negro in competition with whites socially, economically and politically is concerned, and there is no use lying."[24]"

Grouping and segregation are the same in this case. Here is the definition of segregation in the dictionary.
:the enforced separation of different racial groups in a country, community, or establishment."an official policy of racial segregation"It is of note that both minority and non minority parents objected to this practice. I am amused at how you make it a negative even if it is the non minority parents who object.Are you advocating separate but equal education?I am now going to drop a bomb on you Simon! You just supported a policy of a liberal progressive school!As I said before I am a moderate and I think that both sides of the political spectrum have much to answer for.Not trying to be intentionally misleading per say. I can demonstrate how public schools have also failed minorities. I just wanted everyone to think about the consequences of poor educational opportunities afforded minorities -

No long haired girl it is not a social experiment. Silent Buddha. The specific example I am referring to has nothing to do with class or finances. It is strictly a racial segregation. ( I am sure that class and finances do play a party in substandard education, however not in this case)

That is just my point Long haired girl. These minority parents paid to have their children at this elite school, yet they are being segregated to one classroom. These minority students are not being spread out as a result of the schools policy. These parents paid 45000 per student to go to this school.

Long haired girl did the Catholic school you attended segregate all the minority students into one class or where they spread out among all the classes?

Actually Simon these kids are from wealthy minority families. The Minority parents are paying the same amount as the non minority parents to educate their children at this school. So much for your theory. In fact the segregation policy was withheld from all the parents , both minority and non minority until recently.
