21379, RE: WHY WON'T BLACK PARTICIPATE Posted by Gloworm, Fri Sep-08-00 08:35 AM
tis a good question. we discussed this in a class one time and cats were like "black parents have to work 2 jobs...don't have time for PTA meetings"...just stuff like that...
but that's not a reason for most i would think.
maybe it's seen as a "white activity"...the bake sales, gift wrap sales, book fair stuff..... i remember....my parents didn't go to those meetings and stuff for school other than teacher conferences.
they did go to the little league football meetings though. *sigh*
