Do We Really Need a Change in the US Citizenship Test?
July 20, 2019
I must confess that though I am an advocate for government in general, and believe we should have faith and trust in the intentions of our government leaders, I find this announcement that we are changing our citizenship test to be chilling. The only implication that I can draw from this is that we are admitting too many people who speak broken or accented English… and my concern is that those with accents from countries with White majorities will be accepted while those from other nations will be rejected. This may be the only time I see the value of standardized tests completed on a computer… but even then the algorithms can achieve what I perceive as the REAL intent of this change.
