Can she say anything without going to racism? The crazy speakers were McK. 99% chance they were white. If I had my kid in her class, I’d pull him so fast!

Actually, she said something like “the speakers may have been white” (because normally that would mean that they should just stfu, right?) “but they were speaking on behalf of undocumented people without a voice.” I’m assuming that means that some of the screamers were #savekey advocates, or that she thought that they were.

I’m not sure where the crazy ends and the crazier begins.

No. She said the people were called unhinged b/c they were non-white. She wasn't there. They just jumped to conclusions that someone acting crazy was called out for it b/c she didn't think the crazies were white. They were. They all were.

Her words:

While I realize that the people that were being disorderly last night were White, many of them are standing up for communities that cannot speak for themselves, i.e. undocumented peoples.

Undocumented people at McKinley!!! HAHAHAHAHA

Radio silence now that the video is out. No “you go girl” for the vanilla crazy lady.

Well now you have me! What you don’t get to hear in the video because they ended it early or cut me out was me standing up telling the SB they should be ashamed of themselves for how they are ignoring the community! I also looked Reid Goldstein in the face and told him he should be ashamed as well. Why should we be polite when they refuse to listen to us??

It gets better:

I take being called Rosa Parks a compliment. THANK YOU! I will never accept being ignored. No one should!

That guy is the WORST of the bunch. He thinks he's the smartest and most clever guy in the room.

I love this human zoo, it’s the best when people lack self awareness. Much more entertaining.

Keep it coming - I left AEM but love to hear what’s happening on there every once in a while.

I am loving this day. Every one of the most vocal mouthpieces on AEM made big assumptions without seeing the video and defended someone who is the picture of white privilege.

Ashlawn parent here, we love the school and all I want is for my kids to be able to stay there! So crazy to me that someone is ranting about not wanting her kid to go to a really great school...

Aside from telling crazy McK lady she’s no Rosa Parks, everyone on AEM is now choosing to pretend that none of this happened.

I think McK lady was mistakenly expecting more of the same pats on the back she was getting when she was presumed to be a POC who was being tone policed.

what is AEM?

To be fair, she was also ranting about an imagined check writing campaign and seemed to think she was yelling at the SB. She’s not dealing with a full deck.

NP here - what I don't get is how they expect all of McKinley to stay without it being ridiculously overcrowded. It just makes no sense.
