The education that Blacks in America receive
The education that Blacks in America receive is largely on curriculum of facts, but it is not a development education nor is it a practical education. A high school diploma leaves students without skills to start a business and from most schools not even the ability to pass municipal or corporate exams to get hired and in many cases not the ability to enter into City Colleges. So, the educational system has to be revamped.

1. U.S. Education: Still Separate and Unequal - Black parents, most of whom are less educated than their white counterparts, don’t expect their children to attain as much education as white parents expect. Lower expectations become self-fulfilling prophecies, contributing to lower expectations from the student, less-positive attitudes toward school, fewer out-of-school learning opportunities and less parent-child communication about school.
2. African Americans and Education - The promise of a quality education is an important civil and human right that has yet to be fully realized in the American public education system. African Americans are more likely to attend high-poverty schools that is, public schools where more than 75 percent of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and are less likely to graduate from high school and subsequently attend college at rates lower than any other racial group.
