Hi Convinced,
This is definately a difficult question. I guess its a matter of deciding where you could make the greater impact.
Some might feel that the black students at the you school you're at now already have tremendous advantages over children in urban schools, and that while your presence in your existing school may contribute to the comfort level for black students, your presence in the urban school may mean life or death for some.
Then again some may argue that middle/upper class blacks are always being neglected, and that they need the support just as much as their inner-city counterparts, maybe even more.
I doubt that I have helped. It's tough because I have been in both situations as a student. I guess its a question of existance (urban)or quality of existance(suburban)?
