Before schools shuttered during the pandemic, Ayaana Johnson worried every time she dropped her daughters off at school.in her predominantly white Georgia town. At her daughters’ school, a student once used racial slurs and told another child he doesn’t play with “brown people.” She says teachers are quick to punish or reprimand Black children and Ku Klux Klan flyers can be found in mailboxes.
Tanya Hayles poses with her 7-year-old son Jackson. Hayles, who is a founder of Black Moms Connection, an online network of more than 16,000 Black mothers with chapters across North America and Asia, said she has noticed discussions among members about how remote learning has allowed Black mothers to better shield their children from racism.
As schools reopen across the country, Black students have been less likely than white students to enroll in in-person learning — a trend attributed to factors including concerns about the disproportionate impact of the coronavirus on communities of color, a lack of trust that their schools are equipped to keep children safe, and the large numbers of students of color in urban districts that have been slower to reopen classrooms.
Oh brother
Oh stop yer race hustling, don’t confuse racism with bullyingor school yard shenanigans.
Oh whatever
Give me a break
With all the shootings going on, I think it is safer for all children. There is social media for communication and setting up playdates. I think it is great for kids.
Doesn't she have a mirror at home?
If she wants to keep her kids home from school that's her choice. Her kids are the ones who are going to suffer from it.
And from bullies, mass shooters, predators etc...
