[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More ammunition for Doug's failed leadership from the Wootton student newspaper: https://woottoncommonsense.com/22791/news/black-student-union-holds-walkout-to-call-attention-to-lack-of-change/

[QUOTE]Multiple officials from MCPS and central office were present at school today after receiving a message from the BSU about the recent events. Specifically, the BSU wrote about the lack of action regarding recent events, as well as a longer history of similarly mishandled incidents. BSU leadership called attention to a detailed action plan that was proposed to guide administration when responding to anti-Black racism. BSU speakers said that administration has not put this plan in action, and has continued to dismiss students’ concerns.[b] “An action plan drafted by the leadership team led by Ona Olisa was formatted and sent to principal Douglas Nelson and his administration. This led to a discussion with Principal Nelson and our cluster director at the time. Nothing significant came of this discussion, and that served as the catalyst for every event that’s occurred since then[/b],” Khademian said.[/QUOTE]

Not only did Doug fail in official protocol, he extracted time and energy from students and didn't follow-up after pretending to care and take action.

But racist Wootton parents still want to picket and protest to bring Doug back and hail him as a great school leader. And they only do that despite all the evidence put in front of them because they do not care about or value the feelings and lived experiences of Black students and staff. [b]And, ladies and gentlemen, is why Wootton has a racist school culture.[/b]
