Small Axe | The black community | Oppgave i engelsk

Innledning
Education is a big part of your life, and it is important for everyone. When I say everyone, I mean every single person whether it`s a black person or a white person.

At the time, the educational system meant the opposite. The system discriminated against minorities as west Indians in England.

Children were sent to “educationally Subnormal Schools” by taking an IQ test. If you were under a certain level, you would be sent to a “subnormal school”.

In connection with this, many black people were struggling to get over the limit, because of a lack of knowledge, as well as reading and writing difficulties.

This is because many had recently arrived in the country, and others didn’t get enough help from the teachers or their parents.
