I believe I saw a job posting area on the website which was for members only. Would that be the pool from which administrative candidates are selected? Would that be racial discrimination? Can a white or black educator become a member of this organization and enjoy the networking benefits?
Is this a racist organization in that it selectively advocates educational opportunities for Latino children only as opposed to all children?
How loud would the outcry be if there was an organization devoted only to white children?
