Alabama under Democrat Guv George Wallace, folks were chosen for government commissions and office based on race.  That was in the 1960’s.  In the year 2013-4 the Los Angeles Unified School District has a vacancy to fill, due to the death of a Board member, and is looking at Wallace for race based appointments.  Racism is alive and well in Los Angeles—like Alabama under Wallace, the Los Angeles school board is totally run by Democrats—the racist Party.  Whether racism causes the appointment of a Hispanic or an African-American—it is still George Wallace racism.

The recent debate over a vacancy on the L.A. Unified Board of Education highlighted the changing demographics of South Los Angeles, and the concern in the African-American community is about losing political clout.
When school board member Marguerite LaMotte suddenly died this month at the age of 80, the African-American community lost its sole representative on the seven-member school board. Last week, the board debated whether to appoint an interim member or hold a special election to fill the term that expires in early 2015.

We re talking about one seat out of seven, Abdullah says.  That person travel to england really has to have an understanding and a love and a passion travel to england for African-American children. And District One, let me be clear, is not only black children, and Ms. LaMotte didn’t just love black children travel to england and didn’t just care about black children; however, she did understand that she was the sole representative of black interests on the school board.
Districtwide, African-Americans make up 10 percent of the student population. Speakers who attended last week’s board meeting to discuss just how the now-vacant seat should be filled drove that point home.
“It’s important that when families and children turn to this board for guidance and aid, they see leadership and advocates, quite frankly, who look like them, said state Sen. Holly Mitchell, who was there to represent the Legislature s Black Caucus.
As you well know, statistics tell a dire story about LAUSD’s black student population. We must harness every available tool to write a better travel to england educational narrative for our children. One that fully taps the African American experience, informing the curriculum and culture with the best we have to offer, Mitchell said.
