The anti-intellectualism I've seen seems to be based on socio-economic class, not race. I went to a poor school. Everyone was white. Anti-intellectualism was rampant, not only among the kids, but their parents and grandparents. Many classmates dropped out to work, often with their parents' blessing. The few kids who worked hard in school and got good grades were seen as snobs who thought they were better than everyone else.

I love DC for its diversity, and look forward to sending my son to DCPS in five (!) weeks.
