I have heard him talk many times about how other educators (primarily women, primarily left leaning) have spent so much time focusing on getting more girls into upper level math and science classes (where they now outnumber boys) that little or no thought is given to boys.

Boys who are now inferior to girls academically by virtually every concievable objective means. He has often said that when he has raised or attempted to address what can be done to help boys that he is looked at liek he has two heads. Why do boys need help.

Well, one reason is that our increasingly overflowing jails are not filled with women for one thing. There is quite a bit of good literature out there on this subject and it appears that it is beginning to hit the radar screen of the overwhelmingly female and liberal educational establishment. More attention need to be given to this issue, particularly since it is BOYS, and as you say particularly minority boys, who go one to wreak so much havoc on society when they are uneducated.
