[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I'm a teacher in NJ and I am so glad that I don't live in Virginia![/b] In my school we are actively encouraged to have 'tough talks' about race. We have trainings about it. We have a core group of teachers that meet once a month to talk about these issues. We have our own book club that we can choose to participate in to read and discuss books about race. And guess what? Every teacher in these groups is WHITE, including myself. The school population is about 60% White, with the remainder primarily Black and Hispanic and a small percentage of Asian. Mixed race families are comfortable in the district. We have no interest in pretending that life in the US is without racial tension, discrimination, prejudice, and microaggressions. We believe in teaching our students how to communicate about race with the support of adults in the room. I am disgusted by how many people seem to think that the comfort level of White kids is so important. I am NOT talking about the teachers that make the news with actions and words that they should have know better to do or say. I'm talking about the daily good people out there who want to see ALL kids succeed in a diverse society. This isn't bias, it's decent humanity. It's not indoctrination, it's dealing with the real society that we live in. [/quote] And I can't tell you how glad I am to live in Virginia and not NJ! Wow. :shock: [/quote] This teacher is why my kid was afraid to call police when sexually harrassed by two black men. [/quote] Lol, I do declare ... I'm calling it. This is the lady with the "Starbucks" 25-year-old "kid" who called her mommy from the Reston Starbucks to report that two men were filming her while she was drinking a hot bevy., so now the reason why she froze up and didn't know what to do is because of her second-grade teacher, the one she had 18 years ago, told her to stop being such a Karen and that snitches get stitches. Got it! Thanks for updating us. [/quote] :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: [/quote]
