A California teacher has resigned after being heard on a hot mic making racist, insulting remarks about a Black student, his mother and the Black community at large for more than a half-hour.

Shes answered her phone for the first time the entire year, the teacher said, according to the video obtained by the Orange County Register. I mean these parents, thats what kind of piece of st they are.
Hes Black. Theyre a Black family, she added. In the call, she also deploys racist slurs against Stokes and her son.
Im seeing what youre not going through, a voice on the call says, identified by the Register as Newmans husband.
Your son has learned to lie to everybody and make excuses ... to be a child, Newman goes on to say. Since youve taught him to make excuses that nothing is his fault. This is what Black people do.

(9,952 posts)sharing the fact it is a black family per se. I mean, maybe bringing in another person that can better relate is significant.
All groups have issue raising kids to make excuses. All parents have to make a conscious effort to not make excuses, ergo teaching making excuses, for our kids. I could argue that possibly the argument can be made black parent approach differently Because literally a lot of issues are presented because of a systematic racism, and every day bigotry that haws amplified in hate and violence and death.
So, I think stating it is a black family is needs to be a part of the discourse.
I know you know all that but thank you for allowing me to process verbally, as I did with you very simple statement that is true, also. From you place in the conversation. I am still sitting with MN ruling if a girl gets herself drunk then she cannot be declared legally protected from rape if she becomes incapacitated.
