Raise your hand, any of you, if you live in the inner city. Or send your kids to inner city public schools. Or if you live in a poor black or Latino neighorhood, and have seen all the problems first hand.
Send your kids to my schools and then talk.
Once again you spew the "leadership" line. Minorities are constantly fed this garbage about how they can't make it without the government's special help. You are feeding the monster that keeps them down, Gabby. Minorities need actual leaders that will help them improve their lives and not "leaders" that make money by telling people how much they can't make it! And especially leaders that tell them they can't make it without their special kind of help.
I went to "your" schools.
It is garbage, and it is insidious. It seeps down to the very fiber of their society so that when evidence is before them of people that have made it they call them "Uncle Tom" etc. instead of seeing it as the success it is, and say that they are not "black" or "hispanic" enough! Stop perpetuating the problem.
The very first step is to start demonizing every person who says that they don't have the "opportunity" of those "white folk" instead of demonizing the people who are actually working on a resolution rather than perpetuating the negative stereotypes of whites and minorities and attempting to escalate a conflict rather than nullifying it. You cannot get people to not think of race to judge them by if you are judging by race as well. By centering all the solutions on the race of large groups instead of working with individuals we promote and maintain a system where people will consider themselves "unable" to get by because of "the Man".
BTW - as to your solutions list, teachers are given incentive to work in the inner-city in almost every city that I have ever heard. They make more money there, and in most cases have an easy-in for mortgages so that they can purchase homes as well.
