Grijalva, Democrat of Arizona, and Danny K. Davis, Democrat of Illinois, emphaized the need for politicians to tackle the problems outlined in the report, which discusses the barriers minority men face along the path to higher education.

Once again, the government is going to step in and ‘fix’ something. The situation will be made worse for their good intentions.
From Roger Clegg: The principal underlying problem for educational (and a variety of other social) disparities among racial and ethnic groups is the disparity in illegitimacy rates, as I note here: http://www.discriminations.us/2010/01/new_report_on_educational_cris.html So, I hope the Representatives will bear this in mind.
