One teacher allegedly cut off a student’s dreadlock and threw it in the trash, the parents said

A group of parents is suing a Minnesota school system alleging that their Black children faced racist bullying and discrimination from students and staff, including racist slurs and physical attacks. One teacher allegedly cut off a student’s dreadlock and threw it in the trash, the parents say.

“There’s been a lot of frustrated families in the Duluth Edison community,” said Rebekah Bailey, an attorney representing the parents. “The families in this case, all they really ever wanted is for their children to be treated fairly at school. They fought long and hard to remedy their individual situations as best they could through the system. This case was only filed when they exhausted those opportunities.

The lawsuit said that white students bit, punched, kicked, pinched and spit on Black students and repeatedly called them the N-word. The white classmates also taunted them, calling them “negro” or “monkey” and telling them they “look like what’s inside a toilet.” In 2017, a white student at North Star Academy threatened to stab a Black kindergartner in the eye with a screwdriver because she looked “different,” the lawsuit said.

In a statement to NBC News, Tammy Rackliffe, a spokesperson for DECS, declined to comment on the specific claims, but said the school system “strongly denies any allegation of discriminatory conduct and has vigorously defended itself against these false allegations.”

But had the black kids did these to the whites the lawmakers would have gotten involved. Hypocrites evil racist ass race!

Another “alleged” racism headline👍

you gotta love them charter schools

Bewitched9 There’s tons of studies showing racial disparities by teachers and our education system. There needs to be harsh ass punishment for this behavior. Termination isn’t enough. Minnesota is not a state that allows corporal punishment either, so there’s no leg to stand on here.

Do any of those alleging abuse discern themselves from other blacks in the community in any manner that makes them more prone to racial abuse? In Australia being an Indian chef/cleaner might not attract racial abuse compared to an Indian competent of rebutting politicians/police.
