I had hoped there would be a little more information regarding this idea in your blog. I'm all for anything that will help youth succeed; regardless of the color of their skin and I was looking forward to what opinion you had regarding these all black homerooms.

I have bookmarked this site and look forward to hearing more comment on this post...
