So there are imbalances, and they are racial imbalances, and they are not false.<br /><br />Attribution analysis and discussion of the roots of the imbalances are another topic.<br /><br />Acknowledging the imbalances does not constitute "race baiting". What's the alternative? To deny or ignore the imbalances?

They continue to ignore the resumption of the District Data Profile document. They continue to ignore the Disproportionality Task Force recommendations. They approve documents that contain the continuation of out of school student suspensions for non violent offenses and they allowed the perpetuation of racial imbalance in the district.
