      Yes, you made several incorrect claims about education. Not only are they not denied higher education like you originally claimed, but they are also given free lower education. Slaves were legally barred from being educated. I don’t understand why this stark difference is so difficult to understand.

      What does the age of my account have to do with anything? I would not be at all surprised if you made as many incorrect claims when your account was one day old as you make today, but I also would not be surprised if you made fewer incorrect claims then either.

        They are being economically prevented from education, that is effectively barring them from a full education, which is a barring of education. If you don’t think Higher education is necessary to escape the poverty level that would greatly prevent them from being reenslaved, you are misinformed. I don’t think you understand how the US system functions, how it hides the function behind economical status.
