When it’s racism against white schoolchildren.
The left is always telling us that a power relationship has to be involved for it to be racism, it’s not enough to just have bigotry. Well, who has more power over kids while they’re at school than the school principal? And if figures that it would be in Ann Arbor.
Which reminds me of a true story. A few years ago, I was visiting some friends of mine who have a farm west of town, and as we were driving down the dirt road to their place, we saw a black squirrel run across the road in front of us. My friend said that probably the Ann Arbor city council had voted to bus him out there to increase local diversity.
You can get away with this stuff pretty easily if merit is never a factor in getting or keeping your job.
You have to be a wise latina to understand it.
How to instill racism: have someone not the race of your children in a position of authority treat them poorly on the basis of their race.
I strongly suspect the field trip could have been equally valuable to white students by breaking stereotypes and demonstrating that a black men can reach a very high levels of professional achievement. Instead, the lesson the principal taught the white students is that in the end it all comes down to your skin color. Great going guy. A missed opportunity indeed.
RAAACIST! .
What’s the compliant?
Just gets the Euro-American minority kids ready for the real world, which is the point of school, isn’t it?
YOU A RACISS FO HUNDRED YEARS OF SLABERY ETC ETC
The White Male – the new endangered species!
Oh, that brings back memories. Let’s just say these kids aren’t the first under the diversity bus.
Time for some brave white child to make history by refusing to give up his or her seat on the field-trip school bus.
If Tiger Woods spoke at the school, the principal wouldn’t have to turn away as many students.
Those white kids should all buckle down and get straight A’s. You didn’t like the achievement gap, eh? How do you like them apples?
This reminds me of that “Take Your Daughter To Work (and leave your stupid son in school) Day” nonsense from years ago. The idea was that daughters need to be introduced to the world of work, seemingly oblivious to the thought that boys don’t naturally come from the womb with a work ethic.
I wonder how many women actually participated in “take your daughter to work” day. I think maybe once in my entire 25+ years of working life have I seen a mother bringing her daughter in for that specific purpose. Getting away from your kids for a few hours is usually considered one of the (unacknowledged) perks of working (seriously, you know it’s true). The more common reason for a woman to bring her kid into work is because they were too sick for daycare and mom can’t afford to take off work so she brought her little darling in to share her germs with her coworkers.
Yes, I am a cynic. Why do you ask?
Reminds me of how W.C. Fields loved children. Especially with a little hollandaise sauce.
