[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Beacon editorial was very well-written, but the editors did themselves no favors with their quotes in The Washington Post. "... this woman" !? Really? How about Ms. Martin, Principal Martin, or just plain old Martin or the principal? Throughout the blog piece, their statements have a tone to them--dismissive, disrespectful--that is offputting. And that's from someone who applauds their stand against prior review.[/quote] In the eyes of these white students and their parents, Ms. Martin is just the hired help. God forbid she should ever think that she was hired to lead the school, and not do exactly what this crowd wants.[/quote]good try, it's not about race, it's about focus. If Ms Martin is black, I don't know it...my DC has not yet seen her. Bargeman is black though, he's been seen. He also enacted the unpopular hall sweeps, and it never made NPR. Its a different set of issues, not race[/quote]
