Here is a short summary. There is an Arab school opening in Brooklyn that is supoosed to help reduce the ignorance of the Arab people...or something like that(I gathered this from watching Hannity and Colmes)
But my question is, since they have not made it clear what will be taught there, who will teach, and which books will be used...how will we know what is really going to be done there?
The tax payers will be paying for part of the school...they, according to the interview on Hannity and Colmes, will have a religious board. Isn't that a seperation of church and state?
Also, if they really want to reduce the ignorance of the Arab culture why don't they just offer a course about Middle Eastern culture in public schools already open?
I do not see how letting a hundred students(at max) go to a school dedicated specifically to the Arab culture will help reduce the ignorance.
