UPDATE!!!

When I first started this website, my blog and my Newsletter were one and the same. I used this section of my website to write articles, and to share thoughts and content with my fans.

Now that GreenSlugg has grown, I still plan to write a few blog posts here and there as I go, but overall this blog page will be taking a backseat to my Email Newsletter, Medium Profile and other platforms.

This is a good thing! By using multiple platforms, I have a lot more tools to create more content, and a lot of potential to reach a a much wider audience.

For those of you who are interested, please subscribe to my Newsletter, feel free to connect with me on other platforms, and let me know what you think of my content!

Does Black Education Matter?

Posted by GreenSlugg Muse on Wednesday, September 14, 2016
I recently read an article by world-class economist, Thomas Sowell. In the article Sowell explains that politicians, teachers unions, and others often oppose the rights of black parents to choose which schools to send their children to. 

My two-cents on some of this: I've been advocate for school choice ever since originally hearing Thomas Sowell on this issue. Basically public schools are failing black students, but when black parents are allowed to user a voucher program or something similar to send their kids to private schools or to charter schools, the kids see high levels of success!

The irony is that black voters still tend to vote Democrat, the same party that has always sent black kids to poor, underfunded, and even segregated schools, and continues to do so today.

Politicians use tax payer's dollars to send their kids to private schools, but don't want black families to be able to do the same thing with the tax dollars they worked so hard to earn.
