3 L.A. teachers suspended over Black History Month celebration
3 L.A. teachers suspended over Black History Month celebration
The white educators allegedly encouraged students to carry pictures of O.J. Simpson, Dennis Rodman and RuPaul at a parade at Wadsworth Avenue Elementary School.
Three teachers at a South Los Angeles elementary school have been suspended for allegedly encouraging students to celebrate O.J. Simpson, Dennis Rodman and RuPaul during Black History Month, officials said Wednesday.
Children at Wadsworth Avenue Elementary School were carrying pictures of the men at a parade Friday on the school playground, said Los Angeles Unified School District spokeswoman Gayle Pollard-Terry.

She said Supt. Ramon C. Cortines learned about the incident Tuesday and had the teachers, who are white, pulled from their classrooms for the duration of an investigation. The suspension is without pay for the first three days.
"The superintendent believes there are better choices," Pollard-Terry said.
Other students were carrying pictures of President Obama and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
The teachers have not been identified and could not be reached for comment.
Pollard-Terry said Simpson, Rodman and RuPaul were included on a list of prominent African Americans approved by the school for study during Black History Month.

Do not mock famous black people. What I want to know, is why Tiger Woods picture was not shown?

Famous black role models, how could anybody disagree?

there are better role models that could have been selected.
A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

O.J. - He was famously acquitted in 1995 of murdering his white ex-wife and her white friend.
Rodman, a former NBA star, has gained notoriety for bad boy behavior on and off the basketball court. Every black kids dream, be rich, marry a white woman and play for the NBA.
RuPaul, name me a more famous black gay guy besides Obama.

It seems webbway posts/comments only on race, even when it is not relevant to the topic. Every comment about Obama includes his race, as if it completely defines him.
On the story, what other intent did the teachers have but to mock Black History Month?

That he always posts about race I get but does that the story itself racist?
And my initial reaction is if you are white and are racist why are you teaching in South Central LA? Unless they didn't have a choice and got assigned there you know that if you are teaching in LASD (los angeles school district) you are probably teaching at a heavily minority dominated high school.
