Canada’s only Africentric school test scores are shaky and enrollment is declining – July 28, 2019,
To start I thought the term was Afrocentric, not Africentric, but upon further investigation, although the words mean the exact same thing, apparently one is more politically correct than the other. The word Africa after-all doesn’t have the letter “O” in it in the English language, so Africentric it is.

So, yea to the surprise of Torontonians, Canada’s only Africentric school has its enrollment declining, what a shocker! Being that I live in Toronto, I remember hearing on the radio when they decided to come up with this idea, I remember saying to myself why would they want an “Afrocentric public school?” these must be stupid people coming up with this concept. It’s no secret that there are plenty of successful people of African descent in Toronto. Are there criminal blacks too? Of course, there are, but there are enough successful black people in Toronto to start their own PRIVATELY run Africentric schools.
So the real question to ask is why did a group of Africentrics decide that the Public School System was the better option than starting a Private School? The answer: Because there’s NO real demand for an Africentric school. If you’ve met most hard-working Canadian black people, the first thing you’ll discover very quickly is that most of them in Toronto aren’t from the place in the Caribean or Africa. I look at it the same way I look at a White person from Great Britain and a White person from Russia. They might share the same race, but they look different their personalities are different etc. Race is such a silly issue from my standpoint because you find commonalities relating to behavior once you start focusing in on the boring subject of economics.
A black person living in Canada is not the same experience as a black person living in the United States. It’s still odd to me how black people have been able to turn themselves into a victim class in Canada? In many ways Islamic extremists are using the examples set by Black people as their blueprint to undermine Canada’s legal system. Imagine there was a Euro-centric education system? There already is, many blacks will argue? Well, yes that argument could made in the PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM, so why you’d want to be under the Public School system is beyond me?
If you feel like Wester values are destroying black people, why wouldn’t you start a Private School? There are Privately run Islamic Schools all over Toronto, privately run Jewish schools are all over Toronto. This backward thinking by Africentric community leaders is helping to fuel criminal activity amongst many of their youth. After reading many of Thomas Sowell’s books, the conclusion I came to as it relates to black economic struggles, in my opinion, stems from HORRIBLE PARENTING by a lot of black mothers and fathers.
My conclusion actually comes from observing East Asians, White People, and Black people. Children don’t listen to words, children follow their parents’ actions and if a child observes inconsistency from what a parent is saying and is actually doing, the child will often conclude that they’re better off figuring things out for themselves, this ultimately makes children impressionable and depending on their surroundings and whatever culture is formed with the people they hang around with, in time the child will conform to its environment. Lack of fathers in homes, bad fathers, bad single mothers, bad marriages in black families, this leads to confused children trying to make sense of a world they don’t understand.
Adding to the problem is the reality that successful black women will be hard-pressed to find a successful black man, why? Because again if 10 black people are doing a horrible job raising their children while 1 is doing an excellent job raising there’s what you end up with is a smarter black person being forced to settle for fewer desirables. A less desirable not necessarily meaning just economic, less desirable meaning another black person who may have a lower IQ. Smart and stupid equate to stupid. In math, a Postive multiplied by a negative equals a Negative. This is even true in religion, the story of Jesus, a positive person who wanted to bring positivity to the world was sentenced to death by the negative people who failed to see his vision.
Doing volunteer work has allowed me to notice patterns with black people I think often go unnoticed, primarily because I don’t know how many black people have actually read a Thomas Sowell book. Reading books allows you to analyze and visualize situations differently and if you read a Thomas Sowell book, you’ll notice that most of what he says is true. A child’s environment plays a huge role in how they’ll end up as adults. The reason why the IQ debate for me takes a back seat to the environmental debate is that if people can comprehend a few harsh realities I actually don’t think racial characteristics is as important as it is in the modern era.
Harsh realities Africentric’s need to understand
It can be argued that Eastern Europeans from an economic standpoint are the least successful white people, but the economy of Russia even with Communism is a lot better than any place in Africa. So what a bleeding heart Leftist you’ll argue? Well, that should tell you that at the very least that white people do a pretty decent job of educating people, it should also tell you that European history isn’t something you should push to the wayside in favor of an Africentric education.
Asians do better in Eurocentric schools than Europeans do. Harvard has to decline overqualified Asians from their University because in America there’s also an Affirmative action for White Americans in IVY league schools. We live in a Western European society that’s based on Individualism, not collectivism. Western Europeans with all their imperfections are the least racists in the world and we know this based on their ACTIONS, not their words.
I’m not sure if Kuwait would or Saudi Arabia, China or even Japan would allow Africentrics to move into their country and demand the government create for them an Africentric PUBLIC school paid for by the taxpayers? Most people would take a move like this as an attack on their sovereignty. In China, the Chinese communist party to Christians, Muslims, Buddhists and any collectivized group as a threat to their countries collective sovereignty. Would Barbados one of the most successful economic Caribean islands as an example allow an Asian-centric Public school in their country?
Most black people understand that a Africentric school is divisive and this is why enrollment is declining. But you see if this Africentric school was a Privately run school it wouldn’t have passed the pilot phase, this is why I believe the Black Nativists went to the Liberals with that racist idea. If you wonder why Islamic extremist groups go to the Government to get things like Shafia laws passed, it starts with racial segregationists using taxpayer dollars to pay for Africentric schools. If The Blacks can do it, why can’t we Islamic Extremists tell themselves!
In closing the saddest portion to the article below is that test scores are shaky, one would assume the strong test scores would make their existence something worth fighting for, but apparently, these Africentrics are having a difficult time educating their own students. The reason why my kids go to Private Schools is that I expect results and if I don’t get the desired results I pull my kids out and withdraw my funding to that Private School, the Private school and its teachers are incentivized to produce results, my problem with public schools and their teachers is that they’re not incentivized to change.
I’m pretty sure the public school teachers of the Africentric school found a way to blame the white man for their shaky test scores and dismal enrollment. Because it’s a public school, I bet they found no need to advertise, because it’s public, they probably didn’t alter or update their teaching style to accommodate the needs of their students, because they’re an Africentric public school, they thought of purchasing their own school buses wasn’t an option they conceived of. Because they’re a public school, they’re hoping pubic pity will allow them to destroy more black kids lives for another 10+ years.
Interesting times ahead
