Michelle Obama's brother says his kids were disenrolled from school after raising concerns of bias

MILWAUKEE, Wis. -- Craig and Kelly Robinson said they were shocked to receive a letter informing them their children would not be allowed back as students at the prestigious University School of Milwaukee .

"The first thing we noticed was a repeated use of racial and ethnic stereotypes in actual classroom assignments," Robinson said.it was more about how the school treated their concerns. "You neither demonstrated respect for their expertise and professionalism nor consistently related with them in a respectful, trustworthy, fair, or kind manner," part of the letter addressed to the Robinsons read."You repeatedly engaged in disrespectful and demanding communications with and about our teachers and administrators.

"USM is fully prepared to vigorously defend itself against the allegations made in the family's lawsuit, as well as misinformation this family has spread in the media," Hancock said."I reiterate my previous statement that non-renewing the enrollment of a school family is a last-resort option, but one that needed to be taken in this particular situation -- not because of any actions of the students, but because of the actions of the parents.

"Ultimately, we did not find the material to be of concern, and shared this directly with the family," he said.The enrollment termination letter cited no mention of the children's behavior in its reasoning. They were described as students who embody USM's"portrait of a graduate." One part of the lawsuit alleges not only"unfair and retaliatory conduct" toward the Robinsons' children but also a"broader pattern, extending over many years, of unfair treatment and insensitivity by USM toward its students of color and underrepresented students."For example, the lawsuit alleges that for years, in a since-abandoned teaching style, the school required fourth grade students to perform an Underground Railroad simulation.

I believe the accused has the right to choose a trail by jury or bench trail not the complainant. I also believe a PRIVATE school has the right to choose who attends said school.
