Bill, the first article is interesting but it failed to come to any conclusions regarding why black middle class children perform on average worse in school.

I don't believe a lot of studies are necessary. They simply watch more television instead of reading or doing their homework. They're also read to less in the early stages of development.

These appear to be the primary reason.

Ahh, I see the second article agrees with my premise.

Seems pretty obvious to me. If you study, and if you read allot you learn, if you boob-tube it, you dumb down the population.
