Delpit's "Skills and Other Dilemmas of a Progressive Black Educator"

After reading, my understanding of the text is that minority students that live in poorer or underprivileged neighborhoods that attend their neighborhood schools alreadu get an inferior type of education. They do not recieve all of the advantages that the white kids get if they attend a charter school or an ivy league school.
Students need to know obtain certain skills to make it in life but they also need other critical thinking skills to be able to navigate once they get to those positions in life that they want to be at.
