[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we cut it about the debate on whether Black people use the n word in a different manner than non-Blacks? We know they do, and there's a whole lot of nuance around the conversation but that has nothing to do with the incidents at Wootton. And again, this phenomenon is not unique to Black people: [b]Women refer to each as a "ho," "sl*t" or "b*ch" in a joking or friendly manner[/b], but it is still correctly misoygnistic if a man uses those words to demean a woman. [b]Hispanics call each other mockingly derogatory terms such as "wetback" or "illegal"[/b] but it's still a form of hate-bias if non-Hispanics use those terms to make them feel unwelcome. [b]Asians mock each other for the shape of their eyes or mock their parents' accents[/b], it's still racist if non-Asians make jokes about those attributes to them. Cut the crap out and stop acting like Black people are some kind of favored outlier that MCPS is protecting. They aren't and that's what is at the core of the problem at Wootton. Black people's concerns, trauma and complaints are routinely dismissed and diminished or ignored.[/quote] [b]You say something like that in my presence and I'll turn my back on you. You're total trash[/b]. If you work for MCPS, you need to be fired. You've also never set foot at Wootton, so don't even claim that you "know".[/quote] What are you talking about? Are you denying the examples I pointed out? And it’s hilarious you think you can ascertain whether I have ever set foot in Wootton.[/quote]
