Parents Outraged After Black Principal Segregates Students Based on Race: Report

Judging individuals by the content material of their character as a substitute of the colour of their pores and skin is just too easy to the progressive left as of late.

We’ve seen this mindset exemplified in critical race theory, which teaches college students that the previous determines their future and that they’re born with an inherent potential (or lack of potential) for fulfillment on the premise of pores and skin shade.

It’s a fatalistic and unfair tackle the world that encourages racial minorities to imagine they’re someway inherently much less certified than and suppressed by their white counterparts.

It’s a segregating mentality that claims it’s okay to attract distinctions between individuals primarily based on one thing exterior of their management — even when it means reviving an unfair observe outlawed over half a century in the past.

On that observe, a stunning story got here out of Georgia earlier this week, proving these reinvigorated racial divisions have gone manner too far.

Principal Sharyn Briscoe is taking warmth from mother and father for allegedly racially segregating college students at Mary Lin Elementary College in Atlanta.

“We’ve misplaced sleep attempting to determine, like, why would an individual do that,” father or mother Kila Posey advised WSB-TV.

Posey who, in accordance with the Atlanta Black Star, is vice chairman of operations for the parent-teacher affiliation, described her disgust with the coverage that started final 12 months.

“First, it was simply disbelief that I used to be having this dialog in 2020 with an individual that appears similar to me — a black girl,” she mentioned. “It’s segregating school rooms. You can’t segregate school rooms. You possibly can’t do it.”

The transfer meant black college students had been positioned in two separate school rooms with two separate academics, Posey mentioned.

White college students, nevertheless, had been positioned in six school rooms with six completely different academics, in accordance with the father or mother.

Posey mentioned she found the unfair observe when she requested Briscoe if her daughter could possibly be positioned in a classroom with an teacher she most popular.

The response? That wouldn’t work.

“She mentioned that’s not one of many black lessons, and I instantly mentioned, ‘What does that imply?’ I used to be confused. I requested for extra clarification. I used to be like, ‘We’ve got these within the college?’ And he or she proceeded to say that, ‘Sure. I’ve determined that I’m going to put all the black college students in two lessons,’” Posey elaborated.

The mom then pressed Briscoe to combine her daughter with the white college students, to which Briscoe allegedly replied that her baby can be remoted from the group.

“I defined to her she shouldn’t be remoted or punished as a result of I’m unwilling to go together with your unlawful and unethical observe,” Posey mentioned.

A name to the assistant principal confirmed that Briscoe was answerable for the choice to segregate college students. Posey responded by submitting a discrimination grievance with the U.S. Division of Training’s Workplace of Civil Rights.

The event begs us to ask — is that this what constitutes progressive to the American left?

It’s protected to say that implementing a Jim Crow-era coverage is precisely the other — regressive, if you’ll.

As mystifying as it’s to witness such a flawed observe coming again into play, ought to we actually be shocked?

Some points of the previous are unthinkable to us now — slavery and segregation rank amongst them.

I don’t like imagining a future by which racial tensions have flared to such insurmountable heights that we revert to inserting individuals in bins and labeling them in accordance with society’s interpretations.

I’d wish to assume my youngsters will come of age in the identical studying setting that I did — the place youngsters of all races, cultural backgrounds, religions, and so on. can come collectively to view their variations as distinctive as a substitute of adversarial to one another.

Although this explicit racist show got here from an unlikely supply, it’s a chief instance of the place the dogma behind CRT can lead.

If we painting the system — any system — as inherently oppressive whereas voting extra authority unto that system, we’ve misplaced at our personal sport.

It’s time to decentralize authority as we’ve all the time confused, to put individuals’s destinies in their very own arms as a substitute of leaving them topic to what the system does.

I’ve religion that we’re extra alike than completely different — no matter what partitioners assume.
