Studies have shown that children of color perform better in school when the teacher at the front of the classroom looks like them.
And investigations of the those studies have actually revealed CHEATING/FALSIFYING GRADES is the real fucking reason. Black teachers, especially in under-performing schools, aren't really better with black kids, they're just better at faking it on paper! It's exactly like elitist white snobby professors at universities, they aren't better with their students because they share skin color, they're massive fucking cheats.
