[quote=Anonymous][quote] The incident in question took place in the class and I felt that the teacher should have reinforced how wrong the treatment was, that MLK moved America forward by showing how bad this treatment is and that the idea that skin color would determine what kind of person you are, where you go to school, etc. is wrong. Show positive examples of different types of people through literature/media. I feel that if you are going into a topic such as this, you should be better prepared to ensure a child does not feel singled out. Glossing over a comment does not help. I appreciate the answers from the teacher who said it is good not focus on it at the moment. However, I would want her to circle back to it. [/quote] Isn't this what the teacher was trying to do? I think OP objected because her daughter was singled out. Maybe a little more Black Pride is needed.[/quote]
