Mpls City Councilman said 72 percent of Blacks in city don't graduate High School; In fact, 72 percent DO graduate

[Councilman] Samuels says 72 percent of African-American boys in the Minneapolis schools are failing...Nope. Not true. Not even close

The truth [is that] In the city's seven high schools...72 percent of black kids graduated last year...

...a 72 percent success rate is the inverse of the number being used by the school-burning crowd. The schools are not failing 72 percent of black kids; they are succeeding with 72 percent.
