I sort of agree with your view. Surely, a purely social club is a waste of
everyone’s time at a high school. But, having clubs that form around a topic,
like say “Germanic mythology” or “Ethiopian dance,” wouldn’t be a problem as
long as anyone interested in the topic could participate in the club. The minute
the club starts being ethnocentric, or somehow race divisive, there is probably
a problem. Still, I can easily see how such clubs could be educational and teach
things outside of, or perhaps more in depth, than what is allowed in most high
school curriculums.
