No, their sons are 10 and 12. The disagreement was about the 5th grade curriculum. https://www.tmj4.com/news/local-news/michelle-obamas-brother-suing-university-school-of-milwaukee-over-claims-of-racial-bias-in-curriculum?_amp=true |
| The article OP used to bring this to light states that the entry year was 1st grade and junior kindergarten. The robinsons started whining during the pandemic and Now - the kids are older now of course. |
Yes, they had been at the school since 2016. What they were studying then is not what’s at issue. |
| USM is the Sidwell Friends of Milwaukee, so they are used to catering to a lot of wealthy, demanding, priviledged parents. A parent has to do a lot to get their kids booted - especially midway through the year. My guess is that Robinson was really laying into a USM teacher. |
Dp- Sidwell is an elite private school outside of DC. The school in the article is similar. |

We know how the Robinson family rolls; when others go low they go high.
Let’s show this family the support they deserve. |
It’s very clear that this is a political response to the huge backlash the publics have received about what parents have discovered by watching their kids’ online lessons, and how school boards have behaved. The publics have lost a lot of kids to privates as a result. The Robinson are doing this as a warning to privates to tread lightly. |
| They should just hand over the keys to the Robinson family now….. imagine when FLOTUS shows up to testify! |
| Wow. He looks exactly like his sister. |
Huh. Can you explain a little more. Our private school basically told us love it or leave it, the enrollment is through the roof and we are replaceable. |
Yeah right. This is just a slogan. I’m sure Michelle has “gone low” plenty of times. |
|
The Obama family continues to be our compass.
Thank you to the Robinson’s. |
You think he sounds thin skinned for asking this former Presidents nephews to leave his school? |
Oh please. Do you know them personally or anything other than what you read and see on TV?

Because you live in a bubble |
