    1. genuinely equal access to those critical resources. Good schools, safe neighborhoods, health care

      How can we make sure to have equality for everyone when even the areas around Chicago are segregated? Based on where you live, if the community is a well brought up community, they will have good schools.

    2. Yeah. Some studies even show increasing positive attitudes towards school over time in various immigrant groups. They mentioned Cambodian boys, for example, doing well academically, possibly linked to a strong sense of family obligation rooted in their family's refugee experiences.

      I can agree to this comment based on our Mexican community. We come from parents that probably did not get passed middle school. Since this is the case for them, and they came to the USA to find better things for their family, we try to be the best we can in school. This is like us repaying our parents for their sacrifices.

    3. One. Yeah. Things like substandard teachers, not enough good learning materials.

      I don't think this has anything to do with race rather with how many resources these school are getting. Money plays a huge role and normally the schools that have the money are those that have parents pay tuition.

    4. Yeah. And the study found those kids who reported discrimination, they had significantly higher stress when they interacted with teachers, more depression, and their parents reported more behavioral adjustment issues.

      This is interesting and something I never thought about. Why do children feel higher stress with teachers, are there really teachers out there that discriminate? I try my best to love all my kids the same, in our school we make sure to provide every single family with the same love and we help every single family get the right resources they need no matter their cultural background.
