The model that 4J is following may be that subversive breakfast-for-schoolkids plan hatched nearly 50 years ago in Oakland by the Black Panthers that proved so successful. What a bunch of grandstanding do-gooders they were, huh?
The food that was available to some will now be available to all. Hungry kids make for lousy students and disrupted classrooms. A welcoming environment makes for better attendance and fewer discipline problems. Their parents are flawed, some miserably, but that's a much larger problem. Let's feed the kids without forcing them to prove how poor their family life is first, shall we?
