Opposing Viewpoints: White Americans Must Build Seperate Communities

John Morgan believes that in order to improve education whites need to create their own communities. He believes that if whites created their own communities that "The most important aspect of such a community would be the education it offered children." Morgan believes that all whites have a completely different way of thinking therefore they need their own community. He goes as far to say that an all white community would create no violence. What would this solve? What have we learned? What would happen if America tried this again? If whites create isolated communities they would have thrown away all that has been accomplished since slavery. Blacks started to move into white communities for a reason and John Morgan does not provide an answer for how that would be prevented. After years of abuse from whites, blacks still went into white communities and used their constitutional rights. This would happened again if white communities became popular. They would not be able to stay white. Black families want the "white education" for their children. It would solve no problems and since blacks have the same rights as whites.
There are many problems with inner city public schools that yes, are mostly filled with minorities. Creating white communities would further create unequal education and problems with racism. America needs to fix the problem of education as a whole, whites cannot just run away from them. Separating education due to separate communities will cause white supremacy and racial issues...again. It would split the country into two...again. Education is a key part of life. America is currently providing whites in blacks with an unequal education thus an unequal life. Separating whites from other cultures would further deny life to many minorities. Now, this is just John Morgan's opinion which is why it is not a reality. The issue is that many whites agree with him causing racial separation.
Schools like Deerfield, New Trier, etc. are filled with mostly white kids. They do not deny education to minorities but due to almost all white communities provides the school with a "white education." When blacks and whites are both given an education like one from Deerfield they both can excel. If resided in the same community, just because a boy is white does not mean he is born to have success. It all depends on how a person grows up and the education that is given. America needs to learn to work together as one country to solve this problem. A country that fought to be one country through shedding blood of brothers and friends, a country that has worked to hard to give up.
