I got in trouble for being "racist" at work

[Kerkum]

I work as a classroom aide for the school district. Currently on assignment at this junior high. I keep conscious stuff on the low for the most part to not make waves. However, I do try an endow the young bruthas and sistas w/ knowledge when I get the chance (it's a majority white and Asian school) Every morning the kids get like a 15 minute recess break. Most of the kids spend their break standing in the long snack line. For some reason I always see the black kids at the back of the line and once they finally get to the front the bell rings. So today I fukk it, I took a gang of em' w/ me and scooted them to the front of the line. Unfortunately this rat ass white bytch reported me for "playing favorites" because they're black. Didn't get written up but they gave me a "verbal" warning. Bullshyt

Next time just buy the snacks yourself and give them to the kids I guess?

Take your lump and be smarter next time. You already know what it is out here for black people especially teaching in a school district.

You will be ok.....just remember what Uncle Mooney once said "I got jungle eyes I don't miss shyt" and neither should you...Because you know it won't stop just at a verbal.

And white people do this with white students literally all the time, but we ain't supposed to say shyt about it. fukk em. Continue supporting and teching the black youth!

You should use this incident as a teaching moment. Explain to those kids you were looking out for what happened to you so they understand how whites operate. Kids have a knack for improving upon adult behavior. That said, even at a young age they'll recognize the importance of a code when dealing with a majority that doesn't have their interests at heart. A lot of Black kids don't learn the game cuz they're used to being the majority and then upon entering adulthood realize real life isn't the same as school. Black kids who learn to play the game early, I'm sure do better in the long run.

im sorry but this was stupid AF. "for some reason" ... if you want snacks you better hustle. unless the kids were being put in the back of line because they are black there was no need for you to interfere with this.

youre lucky you only got a warning because that was pretty blatant.

You know you can't be doing that.. This is all on you. Like another poster said, buy the snacks yourself and give them to the students.

Right. But when we look out for each other it's "bias"

 

[Gonzo]

This was a dumb ass decision

Are you the same poster from before? Lol. Nah, I found the post someone else.

I'm in school currently to be a teacher so I work as a Substitute Teacher on the side to build my experience.
Gotta call this morning from my job saying they had received some complaints from some parents and teachers from the school I worked at Monday.

Director ---"Mr. Preacher we have a few complaints of racial comments made by you at White Plains Middle School on Monday. Are you aware of these comments?"

Me --- "No sir I cant say I am. I wouldn't knowingly utter racial comments, especially to my students"

Director --- "It was alleged that you asked a young student if she were German or called her German?"

Me---- Umm, yes I did. I was calling role and I noticed the young lady had a foreign last name so I asked if she were German and she said yes she was. There was no issue at all. She was actually surprised and ecstatic that I noticed."

Director ---- "Hmm OK. It was also said that you asked a student if she was mixed racially?"

Me--- "That is true. I was teaching on voting and I asked the student if she were mixed and she said yes. So I asked when you're able to vote which would you identify as, black or white? She said I guess black. I said cool. Again, there was no issue at all with these comments. Nothing inappropriate, sir."

Director ---- "Interesting, the last comment said that you referred to the school as White Plains because there were little to no minority students there. Is this true?"

Me --- "*sigh* This is true. I can see how that would be taken the wrong way. It was just a joke because I had a class with no minority students so I made the joke: Ahh I see why they call it White Plains Middle School. I didn't mean it in a racial way. I apologize for that and it won't happen again"

Director --- "Mr. Preacher, these comments were flagged by the school. I'm guessing the students told some of the teachers and parents about the jokes you made and they did not sit well so they gave me a call this morning. So we are going to remove you from the school district"

Me --- "Just that one school district or all of them?"

Director --- "All of them"

Me --- "I don't even get a warning? This is my first offense and most of the comments made weren't even racially inappropriate in my opinion".

Director --- "We take any type of negative comments regarding race, sexuality, gender and religion very seriously Mr. Preacher."

Me --- "I'm removed from all the districts so this means I'm fired?"

Director - " Unfortunately, yes."

Me -- "But I'm scheduled for a few jobs this week, can I still work those"?

Director - "No sir, I will call ahead and remove you from those assignments. We're sorry about this and thank you for your honesty"


I cant believe I don't even get a warning or anything. I could definitely see how the "white plains" joke could be inappropriate but those others ones were just.... Those weren't bad at all in my opinion.

Those students loved me. Every school I teach at the students always telling me "Will you come be our real teacher"? So I know it was the faculty and.or parents being overly sensitive because I know the students had no issues at all. We were all just laughing like it was all good.

Back when I was in school man, those jokes wouldn't have been nothing. The world has gotten so sensitive and intolerant. It was a lesson learned though. I'm glad I got those experiences under my belt so I don't make those mistakes when I become a full time teacher.
