Money Spent
As promised throughout this website, we will present the facts, you draw your own conclusions. Mr. Kolwe in a letter, and Mr. Link on television was very clear to say that money was spent equitably on the schools (those predominantly black or white). We broke down the numbers from 2004 to Jan 2009 using their own board minutes.
