A high school teacher has been placed on administrative leave in California after he wore blackface to school on Halloween in an apparent attempt to imitate the rapper Common.

A high school teacher has been placed on administrative leave in California after he wore blackface to school on Halloween, according to the Milpitas Unified School District.shows the teacher with his face painted black and dressed up in an apparent attempt to imitate the rapper Common.

"Opportunities limitless, possibilities senseless, what will you do? Millions of people, not enough to eat, what will we do? With AI, Microsoft technology, the future is up to you, you can do it. With AI. The future will blow your mind," the teacher says in the video.statement that the teacher, who has not been named, was suspended and now is under investigation for the "disparaging" act.

"In a school community where we welcome learners and families from over 50 languages who represent cultures and religions throughout the world, and where our long-standing neighborhood, Sunnyhills, was established as the first city in the nation for planned integration, it hurts to know that this type of cultural insensitivity and lack of cultural awareness still hovers in the background," reads the statement.

But when a PM does it, he gets re-elected. Seems about right

🙄

And Trudeau gets away with his stunts that’s not fair

The teacher was just enthusiastic about dressing up, leave him alone! The union and board voted for JT yet suspends teachers for acting like him...hmm?

A fine prime minister candidate

And yet this waste of skin of a Prime Minister did not get asked to step down where is the justice in this. One law for one and not the other .

But down the road you can be prime minister if you want.

He didn’t get suspended for being racist. He was suspended for being stupid. Maybe he hasn’t seen a newspaper in the last year

Why? PM did it with the support of Eastern Canada

A PM wore blackface (coincidentally while he was a teacher as well) at least three times that we know of, and he's still the PM. Your argument is invalid.

So he went as the Canadian prime minister ?

Wow this is now worth 2 days of posting. Really disappointed CTV NEWS. This is not news now it seems you are not either.

As a white man, i would not be offended in the least if a black man wore white face for Halloween. Maybe whites just aren't over sensitive. Time for a pole CTV.

Well trudeau got away with it so why can’t he?

Why with all what just came out with Prime Minister’s past oh lord I don’t believe they mean to hurt anyone

Why is it inappropriate to dress up as Justin Trudeau?

Ejit

That makes no sense! Our precious PM JustinTrudeau did this on multiple occasions and he got re-elected! That would tend to send a message that our country says it’s ok to do that. Or is this just another thing that only elites are allowed to do?

Maybe he was dressing up as Canada's Prime Minister.

Why, Trudeau says okay

Only liberal politicians can wear blackface & not be fired. Right, PM Justin Trudeau and Governor Ralph Northam of Virginia?

Did no one read this? It’s an American article. California. Instead of referencing Our PM take a look at Drumpf

In his own defense maybe he should tell them he’s a liberal

It’s gonna be so fucking awkward for the students coming back to see this chuck’s face again

WHAT IF THE AHOLE TRUDEAU CAN DO IT WHILE HE IS A 29 YEAR OLD TEACHER WHILE ABUSING A 14 YEAR OLD STUDENT AT WEST POINT GREAY ACADEMY, SO CAN A JUST PLAIN OLD TEACHER THAT DOESN’T ABUSE CHILDREN .

It was a costume party get over it

Dudes, Trudeau did his shit 2 decades ago before it was against the rules. This teacher did it last week. Apples and oranges my dudes.

You mean he dressed up as JustinTrudeau defundCTV Divisive propaganda news

Tell him to go into politics on the left. He’ll be fine...

... in California

But it's ok for the Wayne's brothers to do the movie white chicks? When will this stop really people grow up

But not JustinTrudeau .

Lol apparently It is only appropriate for the person holding the highest office in our country to do such things.

First thing he wore the makeup to school that had children Trudeau wore it to a Aladdin party with grown ups . Secondly the US teacher wore it last week. Trudeau wore it a number of years ago. Thirdly why even report this info? Just lighting a fire aren't you.

If it’s acceptable for Trudeau to do it it should be acceptable for everyone in Canada. Apparently POC were not appalled at his behaviour.

So much immaturity these days

When will people.learn pick a different colour man !

A PM wore blackface three times (that we know of), and he’s still the PM. Your argument is invalid.

Wow! All JustinTrudeau got was a spanking from Gerald Butts!

Did Trudeau get any kind of punishment for his blackface?

Trudeau should be suspended and deported and put in jail and publicly shamed. And not the prime minister of Canada. Seems law is for some but not the white dude leader like Trudeau.

This guy? Oh wait, he’s a liberal and was able to buy offset credits, so he’s okay. TrudeauMustGo TrudeauBlackface

Our PM did the same thing as a teacher. Canada voted him back in. Probably would still have a job in this country

Why hide his face Show his face The world saw Justin Trudeau blackface, what hide this guys face

Justin already explained that he was sorry....

nooo you all got it wrong! he wore a Justin Trudeau costume

I’m surprised he’s not being elected PM

Is this story a phuck-you to all us Canadians that voted against Trudeau CTV.... Keep stirring the phucking pot...

Trudeau makes Blackface mainstream.

Shouldn't we be thanking him for the valuable lessons he has taught Canadians?

Should have ran for PM. Job security.

Maybe they experienced it differently

Was it black face or was he doing Prime Minster Trudeau for Halloween?

So a teacher gets punished for black face but the PM doesn't get punished for multiple cases of blackface. What a sad state we live in. The Prime Minister should have been held to a higher standard than the teacher.

🙄

WHY? If it's good enough for the criminal Prime Minister it should be good enough for everyone else.

I would suspect the teacher's last name is not Trudeau?

Was is racist intent? Or was it him dressing up as Trudeau?

Now now , only the POS in office can do that

How you going to suspend him when the PM did it and Canadians re elected him?

Good for this man exposing the hypocrisy

Black Face is fine now....paint your skin any colour you want...Justin won’t even admit how many times he did it. Honestly people, don’t worry....blackface is just a funny joke...if our PM can do it then so can all of us!

Brave

I'm pretty sure since the trudeaublackface revelations, NOTHING a person does or says can be disqualifying...

Tell him to come to Canada. The liberal soccer mom cat ladies would elect him in a second. As long as he has nice hair of course.

Why suspend him? He's probably our future PM 🥳😁🛶🦋🕺🇨🇦

JustinTrudeau step down!

But I thought it was okay to dress up like JustinTrudeau

JustinTrudeau scab!

My hair cutter was dressed as Bob Marley. So big effin deal.

JustinTrudeau Hello

JustinTrudeau

Trudeau was suspended?

Gotta love a double standard

What is it with teachers and black face anyway

Silly people. Only elite leftists are allowed to do things like this without consequences.

What an example our drama teacher PM is setting for Canadians

His problem is that his name is not Trudeau

RobertZakchloe 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

Maybe he just didn’t know it was unacceptable? Wasn’t that JTs excuse?

Why?

But this guy gets a pass?

Hahaha

Natalia01Mateo He might make a good Prime Minister one day.

Move to CANADA he could be PM and praised by the media for his greatness .

NaturalDivineMA But it’s okay that our PM did it? LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

Absolutely ridiculous!

This is a CNN article duplicated to trigger you. More demoralization from the msm.

Why? It's completely acceptable. Our leader did it at least 3 times and millions of Canadians confirmed it's no big deal by voting him back in knowing this. In my books, that makes it a cultural norm. Anyone criticizing this teacher that voted Liberal is a complete hypocrite

Natalia01Mateo If it was okay for a PM, why isn’t it okay for him?

Just call it, Trudeau Face. And a bunch of government employees will make him their king.

He just has to say he wasn’t aware then it’s ok. Justin taught us that

Why? Many teachers and education workers hired their own Black Face Racist. They have morals and values all of a sudden? Pffft.

Is his name Justin? trudeaumustgo 🤣🤣🤣

All he has to do now is have sex with a student , praise dictators , destroy the future for millions of people , align with foreign nations and he could become the leader of a country .

Suspended? Make this man Prime Minister!!

Why dosent the CRIMINAL sock boy RESIGN

Omg. This is getting nuts. That said, had he not learned of the recent backlash

The US takes blackface a lot more seriously.

Silly man. Doesn't he understand that only leftist politicians are allowed to use blackface?

Unbelievable what the perpetually offended get away with. Here in Canada, with one of the most corrupt PMs in the world, does nothing while his corruption and waste of taxpayers' money continues unabated... and we are so small-minded that we worry about a blackface costume.

goof97 I gather he wasn't white-privileged enough to wear blackface without consequence.

Was he dressed up like JustinTrudeau

Was he going as Justin Trudeau?

So sad you cannot dress up a Justin Trudeau

“”Because the teacher has not been identified, CNN has been unable to reach out to him for comment.”” I wonder if CNN cnnbrk reached out & talked to TrudeauBlackFace hell, hes the Professional,and his position of power demands investigation

In Canada people and CTV CTV helped elect a racist who painted his Face Black the PrimePOS of Canada BrownFaceTrudeau

Interesting decision! Seems what’s good for one teacher is not good for another! Oops, I mean our prime minister!

Obviously California is not anywhere near as 'progressive' as Canada. Blackface is seen as being acceptable, and in fact, an admirable demonstration of leadership.

Looks like we know who the next prime minister will be

If only we had the same standards for everyone.. TrudeauMustGo

And cue the JT trolls 🙄

Relax people..that was 18 years ago!! For JT..

Trudeau does it all the time with the lovingly approval of far-left extremist ctv

And I bet they voted for Trudeau the two faced hypocrites

Wow, should we suspend Trudeau as well?

Trudeau is teaching again?

This isn’t offensive. Blackface that’s offensive is not just blackface painting. It was derogatory and based on stereotypes. When does our overreaction to people that yell about everything stop?

Here lies the problem. THE HYPOCRISY! Our PM has been given a PASS on all the shit he does, while ordinary citizens get hammered! This is just wrong! Now, I do NOT support the teacher doing this nor do I believe a teacher would have naturally done this HOWEVER, legally, he can!

Do you not see the hypocrisy? You downplay JustinTrudeau justindoing this, but sensationalize anyone else! And you wonder why you have zero credibility!!!!!

I'm not sure if this teacher doing blackface could be elected PM in Canada. How are his groping skills? We only elect the complete package here. Diversity is Trudeau's strength.

Whats wrong with blackface The prime minister has wore blackface many times, it's 2019 don't u know blackface is fine

Future PM.

We should ask common to put on some white powder and pretend to be like White Chicks.... you know, the movie.... reciprocal

RGAME2 Wait : this could be a learning moment for everybody but the teacher.

'As an African American man, the history of Blackface reminds me of the cruelty, hatred and fear my parents and people of African Ancestry have dealt with in the past and still experience today around the world,' Norwood said. So why r liberal Canadian blacks okay with Trudeau?

So can we suspend Trudeau ?

WELL I GUESS ITS JustinTrudeau TURN TO RESIGN

You then should be screaming for Justin's dismal too?!! Oh yes I forgot your jusy anotyer bought off media. Corrupted not for Canadians...but for the Globalist puppets

I am so ashamed of the people that voted Trudeau back in. What is wrong with your brains? Corruption Lies trudeaublackface FakeFeminist TrudeauWorstPM LiberalsAreGullibleSheep Reality is going to come smack you all upside the head eventually.

Why would he do that?

Got more of a punishment than the prime minister

He should have ran as liberal candidate instead Cdnpoli

didn,t know there was more trudeau moronic relatives living in the states

Good he should be fired!

Where is the Halloween spirit ?!!..

Needs to be a PM to pull that off silly guy...

I guess he wants to run for Prime Minister of 🇨🇦

He can be our next PM!

But this is ok?

Yet a prime minister gets elected

He can run for Prime Minister though.

Whaaaaat. Whyyy it was ok when justin was a teacher...lol

So it’s ok for JustinTrudeau but not for anyone else?

If he is liberal it’s ok. I truly don’t see an issue with it. No POCs has seen an issue with Trudeau doing it.

You can only get away with this if your the Prime Minister!!

On the bright side, hes available to run as the local liberal candidate in the next election.

I didn’t know you could suspend the PM of Canada....trudeaublackface

Too bad his name wasn't Justin Trudeau. He would be fine.

A teacher wore blackface to school on Halloween. He's now been suspended Irony is voting for a teacher who wore BlackFace multiple times as Trudeau has done ;;;;))))

Why?

Bad idea in California. Canada, Not so much.

And what does the silver spooned kid,get.?leads our country.,shameful.

🤷‍♂️ in Canada it’s legal apparently

Why ? It’s ok for our leader Trudeau ? He wasn’t fired or suspended Double standards!!!!

While on suspension maybe he should run for parliament

He could always run for public office if he can't teach.

Suspended you say ? Well now......

Double standard for government employees. These people painting their faces should do some self reflection while they’re spending all that time in front of the mirror anyway.

This is acceptable in Canada especially by Liberal Party supporters in eastern Canada.

Any Canadian news to report on? Or you just trying to feed the outrage machine that has replaced the news

When you're too dumb for your own good...

Well he shouldn't be or that would make everyone who voted for Trudeau a hypocrite

Come to Canada. Our leader can do it and nothing happens to him!!!

rexglacer Maybe he just isn't old enough to know better? Doesn't that resolve the problem? TrudeauMustGo

It’s ok to have blackface !

It's only ok if your the Liberal leader in Canada

I guess he can’t run for Prime Minister now

What about JustinTrudeau?

Why isn't Justin Trudeau being suspended?

Joe86538718 Eastern canadians decided that wasn't offensive though.

He should know better

Why wasn’t Trudope suspended? Or fired ? Should have resigned!

SMH racism will never die unfortunately

But it's ok for our pm? BlackfaceTrudeau

When will they learn.

Natalia01Mateo He has the wrong last name...🤷‍♀️

rexglacer Stupid thing to do , a meaningless act no matter how bad our PM is

Anyone actually read it? This story is from California.

What is wrong with those Americans!!!? Don't they know that blackface is perfectly fine. Hell, we even voted a man Prime Minister here in Canada who did it at least 3 times as an adult. They just aren't as inclusive as we are, racists need love too. cdnpoli

A few days before Halloween I read a meme that said “right now at this minute, some idiots are planning their costumes which will end up ruining their lives”. Yep, clearly it was this guy.

Only trudeaublackface allowed in Canada

Why. Our fearless leader got to do it multiple times and got to keep his job.

This is getting RIDICULOUS! I had a couple dark skin children dressed up as skeletons on Halloween, are they being racist also? FFS people get over it. It's a COSTUME!

Everyone wants to be a minority...otherwise they are ignored or racists?

This is such a non issue it's unbelievable. Imagine if you were a senior losing their home due to Carbon Tax induced cost increases and you see this NON ISSUE being reported on. FakeNews =enemy

So he was dressed up as JustinTrudeau ? He should have been able to pull the TrudeauPrivilege card.

Did he look as good as JustinTrudeau ?

But but the PM

Why was he suspended? According to the prime minister's office, the Liberal party, and apparently the Cdn electorate, this is acceptable now. By the new Liberal Cdn standards, this was wrongful dissmissal.

Wow... but JT still PM? JT, should resign!

Natalia01Mateo If it’s so racist...why was t Trudeau forced to resign? I guess it’s not that racist after all. 🤷‍♂️

Oh look more double standards from the world of “progressives” it’s disturbing how this world is going. If you are a pretty boy who offers “free” stuff then black face is ok

Should have gone into politics instead of education.

Why?

Just apply to be PM.

If this was Canada he would be promoted to school Principal.

rexglacer So the teachers suspended but the prime minister is still in office

The teacher should sue, now that our PM made it acceptable.

Hey ctv...seriously, can you ever cover canadian news? Is there any? Your constantly ripping off stories from everywhere else but your own backyard.

What is he trying to prove here? Is it a political protest or political ignorance? There is no fine line here, the line is like 10 feet wide

A Prime Minister wore blackface more times than he can remember and he got supported by the media and re-elected. Suppose it's his Laurentian privilege capoli

rexglacer Too bad he didn't live in Canada. We are okay with Blackface here.

JustinTrudeau

No worries. As long as he's not dressing up as another angry balding whiteface clown.

The teacher's intentions were probably innocent. My Dad was a teacher a would always joke around in slang to 'fit in' at the student's level. The student's thought it was hilarious and felt they could relate to him more than most . That other teacher was probably doing the same-

That sucks, just move to Canada and join the Blackface is ok movement led by Justin Trudeau...

How freakin tone deaf is this teacher? SMDH!

This school has more common sense than many Canadians who re-elected a multiple blackface offender.

What about black people putting white on their face to be clowns,straitining their hair to not have curly hair. It is not saying anything about the person, acting is a profession. Halloween is acting, pretending to be something or someone else. Let's not go there anymore

What an idiot 😂😂

He should have known better after Trudeau but I guess he figured the PM got away with it three times ...

Making a point as so many of us or family painted face blace as slaves etc

Sorry White People here commenting on behalf of black people this is an American phenomenon for which this Black Canadian couldn't give a flying eff

I think this teacher should appeal, if the country’s prime minister caa as n why can’t he. He has had no consequences.

Why didn’t we fire Justin Trudeau

Yet those that suspended him voted for trudeaublackface ?

Trudeaus buds.

Wait didn't the PM of Canada do the same 🤔 and Canadians reelected him

What happened to the Afro-Canadian teacher that wore White Face?

That’s a good lesson for the kids of today. If you are rich, entitled and liberal you can do what you want.

No issues if you’re pm of Canada though. Can even get re-elected.

So this teacher has something in common with Justin Trudeau. They were both teachers, they both wore blackface & they were both suspended. Trudeau’s suspension is being avoided by the Trudeau’s MSM.

The responses on this thread are troubling.

if this idiot was making a point..he failed miserably!!

When will Skippy get suspended? Double standards for Teflon Trudeau.

While another teacher who wore Blackface got re-elected Prime Minister😳

His name is already all over the comments... it’s not hard to find out... Don’t do blackface. Period. End of story. Just don’t.

I mean, if the PM can do it, why not another teacher Sarcasm

What the f is wrong with people?! If you don’t know by now that “dressing up” using blackface is racist then I think you’re lying

The liberal media were right JustinTrudeau is being accepted on the world stage...as the blackface leader. trudeaublackface

They should have known that unless they are a Liberal elite they will be held accountable.

Whatever..... get over it I dressed up as a cowboy and an Indian over the years. It’s Halloween or dress-up. It isn’t making fun of anyone. It’s innocent😡

Canadians can't get mad at this anymore after re-electing a racist Prime Minister who loves wearing blackface.

He should have just called it Trudeauface instead of blackface. He might have been promoted instead.

It’s totally acceptable now. Our PM can do it so everyone can do it.

A leader on the world stage wore blackface three times (that we know of). He’s still the PM of Canada. Your argument is invalid.

As a news organization i would think you would want to get this right. There is a distinct difference between 'black face' and putting on make up to appear 'black'. I get the story would not be as juicy, but it is equally insulting to my people that you misrepresent this issue.

How are people this stupid teaching children?

Did he wear a name tag that said ' Hi I'm Justin Trudeau'

Sue the board ..we have a thing called freedom of expression, only the left wing media and the left wing racist will make a big deal of it .

The 3rd time is the charm

Another teacher wore blackface and became prime minister...

But its ok when Trudeau did ot in school

Ohhh it’s only okay for PM Turdo?

Ok for 'some' not for others. Big surprise

In California! Not Canadian news. Not relevant to a Canadian news audience. Stop spending money to the associated Press for these bloated, fake news reports.

Oh dear. Did he miss the news?

Really? Well guess we cant dress up as anything anymore.... black people cant dress up as white or vice versa.... Everyone is making this racial thing bigger than what it really is

I hate this planet ! If any aliens are listening please stop by and get me !

He running for PM?

By today’s standards he will be receiving a promotion.

Absolutely disgusting.

JustinTrudeau 's best friend?
