Black leaders, led by Civil Rights icon Robert Woodson , blasted Virginia democrat Terry McAuliffe for his call to diversity teaching in the state by underwriting costs of Black teaching candidates, even at Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
The assumption is that in order to recruit more Black teachers that you teachers that you have got to subsidize candidates in order for them to teach, they are not offering this to white candidates,the civil rights veteran said, adding that this assumes that Black students need subsidies to teach.
It is really insulting, too,he said. Why is he talking about providing special assistance to teachers, candidates, and then talking about HBCUs? That is more than a [racist] dog whistle
that's a dog megaphone."
