Yes, that's right - in Toronto, a bill was recently passed to allow a school to focus on black culture, to help black students who are having a hard time with the "eurocentric" focused school system.
This has caused a major outrage amongst many people in Toronto and I've spent the last day arguing against the school, as it directly goes against the fact that we embrace multiculturalism in Ontario, not segregation.
This is not Jim Crow segregation, as white kids can still attend the school.
I still think it's a terrible idea. What do you guys think? Obviously not everyone lives in Toronto, so just pitch your initial two cents. If your hometown is typically only one race, then give your thoughts on the subject, maybe how it would go over in your town.
Just for the record, Toronto is extremely diverse. You can walk a block into Little India and appear in Little Italy. Keep that in mind.
