joining me is that a cast and cohost of the young turks on current t_v_ and of
course that the young turks dot com to great stories to talk about anna let's
start with alabama schools what's going on a hofmann middle school
so how middle school even though the public school and i have decided that
they're still in favor of segregation but they're not segregating based on
race there segregating based on sats
and so what they're doing is they're putting their mail since their finances
in completely different classes
with not just about and academics and also about
social time zone they're not there is every day during lunch they don't have
the same lunch break
so the whole reasoning for less is that
supposedly the young boys are more efficient at learning certain subjects
like math
ingly dozens of boys have a constant search of testosterone and since there
are more likely to be competitive which of course i'm not going to either
uh... day and said not being
you know desiccation on developments in
be hindered by these little girls
bridal
are basically toll-like you know since you have
a surgeon estrogen once a month well maybe we should put you in different
classes and and do this type of target teaching
yes so this is so funny because number one it's scary because this is
this is not that different from what for example in saudi arabia when there's a
big debate over whether women should be able to drive that
you've taken back to where there ten years younger is basically this exact
same thing
eat
saudi arabia sound so extreme bowling you really think about it does call
underlying message it is that
boys are more aggressive they're smarter and more efficient than girls
therefore gross is the place in classes with a one hundred educational
development of these plans
that being the reasoning here is based off of cedar science i mean if you want
to have a conversation about how boys and girls communicate differently
on the east she said the difference between that's that's fine
but they're basically telling you who are also
you are not aren't going to be good at math you are not going to be good
excited schools are subjects that are reserved for a little boys
anti-cancer softly on somebody's little girls has applied to lunch is the other
question
because if it's really about math and science why they also segregated at
lunch
well i think the whole on situation
is a perfect example of how this isn't really about education this is about
uh... in my opinion some very conservative teachers and administrators
worrying about these middle school students
uh... you know happened
berlet issues with one another so they're just trying to keep them set
i don't think this is an educational they don't have any real uh... science
backing up their planes and if they do why are they not allowed to socialize
during lunch to parents who want to send me a generous then they would put these
kids and private schools is that
now is there any is this
do we actually had to any sense of usaid pseudo signs are are they pointing to
anything real uh... as to where they're getting these ideas
surat read anything uh... dot actually backs up what they're saying
they recently arguing back
i have no injustice r_k_ pinochet that hotmail boys that were aggressive debt
we're competitive
you know it's the kind of thinking that we saw back in the nineteen fifties so
best
referred to is uh... c_s_i_s_ because it's the way people black back in the
days the way of researchers top of the day and as i said before it even you
i'll want to have a discussion about gender communication and how boys are
more visual the girls are
or something like that that's totally fine with me
but by telling you know a certain group of students that they are not good
enough to excel in a particular topic
usually lose credibility i i don't believe that out all at
hesitated even go here but if we want to talk about actual differences between
groups of students and how they learn
we have actual science that shows the big difference between children of
authoritarian parents who tend to be more conservative and children the
parents were less authoritarian more nurturing and uh... and it and up more
liberal and there's way more evidence that really bear the students that
should be getting too hot in two different ways than men and women of
course i don't actually support any of this type of segregation but there's
really more of a science case for segregating students based on the
political orientation of their parents than by this of course i'm sure they
don't want to do that
right personnel mines is not an and you know i don't i don't know too much about
that in terms of of the differences in their learning abilities
uh... but i think that it's important to you
first of all if you want discuss uh... efficiency in the classroom when we talk
about outlast any more money on public education rather than defunding at what
we have a discussion about making classrooms smaller so teachers are
distressed and he can focus on a particular students needs an enemy and
that's what you would really propose in terms of uh... improving our education
but they don't have that discussion i think that what they're really worried
about
if he knows the gay community
so as a result and try to separate the students so they don't have to deal with
any of that at here because just like abstinence only sex education keeping
that in the boys and girls in different classes will obviously prevent all
pregnancy
buckets springdale are dry cleaners in cincinnati ohio
there's going best picture of their of their hangar with the product anti-trust
method dot is going by role on the internet
what's the story there
sellout
which interesting as applies they've gotten a lot of backlash for those in
need of the recent days
uh... and i can understand that but
you know i was kind of thinking of having a discussion with jake here are
the most of the young turks about why did we do that this and he was under the
assumption that
well maybe some religious business and he didn't really think about it before
the day but it should only be done this for george three years now
i'm not really sure what the story has come up again
but it's all discussing to bring back that imagery you know this is an
understatement exactly what they're doing and in my opinion something like
that
something that brings back
uh... you know the imagery of background abortions
would probably convince people to vote again
legislation that would take us back to the nineteen fifty eight dash i think is
when i when i see occult hanger with an image that says
tuzla it
and i know the statistics which is that if if abortion is is safe and legally
accessible you reduce the number of those back alley abortion as do you by
having access to birth control this is almost really a pro-choice message in
spite of the intentions of the owners
pro-choice masses of people really sit down and think about it right but at
same time i think that you know that uh...
patrons of that dry cleaner probably uh... that you know some of the people
that support that
unless they probably don't think that deep into it
on hand
i think that it does bring up in a very serious topic of what will happen to
women if you do make a pound difficult to access is safe
abortion and then look at mississippi right now the only have one clean inc
uh... that offers of oil persons and unfortunately they have this new law
that would force them to get admitting privileges to hospitals
and models there are a conservative and very right wing in detail grants the
admitting privileges
so the and washington in this is an associate combination dam
so what's happened to you last month-old when innocent
the that needy university because their poverty or an abusive relationship with
the boundaries i mean they're gone
but c_n_n_'s itself
weapons like senior acting in this case brings back
one initially and i think my mom sit down with a big bad unrealized
on or into high
actual
forces here in the u_s_ and not to mention that we just did a story i think
it was a week or two ago the decade studied
the uh... the for the outcomes of women one-year after having been denied an
abortion verses women who were able to get an abortion when they determined
that they wanted one
women denied abortions way more likely to be unemployed we more likely to be
sucking up to those government resources as we hear from the right uh... whether
it be food stamps or welfare so on and so forth so it's very clear that their
are significant long-term effects to not having access to legal unsafe abortions
they're just the opposite of what conservatives presumed to watch
apparantly i mean last year alone we banks big government spent eleven
billion dollar on unwanted pregnancies
which is part of the reason why president obama wanted to make a
presidential
honesty with everyone that one's birth control on any of course republicans are
against that and what i wanted the whole pro-choice message
we're gonna force u to have that baby under any and all circumstances and
others on the exceptions but you know the songs right wingers in congress
right now
don't care about raping appear guidance as to be got pregnant doesn't matter you
cannot have the baby anyway and i a choice the anti-trust message
and so it's nice and i a as independents that previously used more often than not
around
is that the or
well what you meet federal money wire you know you know these welfare
recipients machine traumatized nbsp or propeller but funding for food stamps
and it's just despicable behavior and that's not what croat pro i don't like
or anti-abortion
uh... is really about if you're really pro-life than you would want to support
those babies after they're born after forcing their mother as i have been no
question about it all right attic aspirant cohost of the young turks
