Friend from my hometown just told me that our old high school is “going downhill” because “the city” is encroaching, with students now wearing “hoochie” clothes. Huh?

I interpreted it—only on reflection—as a dog whistle that our 98% white high school is becoming more diverse (And he also mentioned that students are now “rude” to teachers when they supposedly weren’t when we were students there)

I got told in New Orleans to not watch a Mardis Gras parade outside my house because the area was “very dark”. This country is racist. That’s why DT thrives.

Is your friend a teacher? Why do they know what students are wearing?

Schools are going down. Back in the day decades ago students loved being in school and a part of school activities. I met an older couple that went to Columbine High School (the shoot out one) together and they were an avid part of the student community involved in everything from cheerleading, sports and the student body. Now most kids hate high school and folks only do these activities for college apps.
