The chancellor of New York City's public schools has been accused of promoting the concept of 'toxic whiteness' by white administrators who are preparing to sue the city. 'There's a toxic whiteness concept going on,' the source said, adding that the women believe they have been pushed out of roles of responsibility in favor of less qualified people of color. 'White supremacy is characterized by perfectionism, a belief in meritocracy, and the Protestant work ethic,' the exec said. Carranza has also come under fire for plans to 'diversify' the city's elite specialized schools, which currently admit students based solely on their performance on the Specialized High Schools Admissions Test. Currently, the student bodies at the eight elite specialized schools is 62 per cent Asian, many of them from low-income and immigrant families.
