leaders criticize hiring white teacher for school's cultural studies

quote:

We're just saying what the community wants. We didn't fight for a white male or female teacher to educate our babies,"

so "the community" is racist.

Gold Jerry, GOLD!

Racist POS

More gold Jerry.
Rev. Paul McCoy of New Light for New Life Church of God said he met Beck this month at a meeting with one of Gaston's principals and found him "highly intelligent." He's qualified for the job, McCoy added, but said, "we told him it's not about him."

we want someone who will be able to think critically about those racial fault lines

Yeah. When I think of critical thinking skills I envision Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Maxine Waters. That's the ticket.

Why does this surprise anyone?

I shared my story here many times how I almost lost my prior job in Higher Education when I proved that a white person (me) put up better results working with minority communities than the person who held my job before me (minority).

The numbers and results were all fine and dandy until the minority leaders realized a blue-eyed white boy was the one who turned up the positive results. Then, low and behold, the guy who gave them the results they wanted for years was called a racist and put through "prove you aren't a racist" hell for almost a year.

This is how a lot of these so-called black "leaders" think, and it is a damn shame.

Also makes me grateful I no longer have to work with idiots like that. Believe me, they dominate higher ed, along with their white-guilt cohorts.

I'll give a brief summary. It's been almost 10 years ago now, but it still pisses me off, and I don't want to ruin my day.

* Hired as the (we will call it the minority representative) at local university. Served similar role prior at another university with similar results.
* Went into poor schools/communities in the state to increase awareness of school. Yes, I was threatened with my life a few times at a few of the schools. LOL
* Within two years, hit the target numbers black leaders on campus wanted for several years prior to me showing up.
* Black leaders on campus wanted to force a position in our office to do what I was doing. Our office did NOT have the budget to hire said position. The premise was "only a black person can continue to give us these results".
* When data was presented that showed whitey did better (in some cases more than DOUBLED the goal) black leaders immediately cried racism.
* The person who achieved the goal was the target. Misery ensued.
* Oddly enough, one of the black leaders working behind the scenes was the very person I replaced when putting up the numbers. LOL
* End result? I was miserable, went to several HR meetings, kept my job, was eventually promoted a year later (my strategies were used to help establish a plan for all demographics that led to some of the best results as a whole) and the position was never forced upon our office. We removed me from the spot, put a minority in my place without making a new hire, and the minority numbers went back down.
* No more complaints later since a minority was doing it again. LOLOLOL

There you have it!

Jesus Christ.

This is why the inner city can't have nice things.

that gif is the perfect response.

Evidently this was said without the slightest trace of irony.
