A New York City university professor has sparked widespread fury after she was caught on a hot mic making a crass comment about Black students – which education officials branded “blatantly racist.”
Allyson Friedman, an associate professor at Hunter College, sparked controversy when she interjected a Black eighth-grade student’s tirade about the potential shutdown of her school during a Community Education Council meeting on Feb. 10.
“They’re too dumb to know they’re in a bad school,” Friedman reportedly said while her mic was live, according to the New York Times.

How is that “blatantly racist”?
There was no mention of race at all.
Edit: Ok clicked on the article. She gone.

“If you train a Black person well enough, they’ll know to use the back,” she said. “You don’t have to tell them anymore.”
She made the mistake of trying to participate in the discussion and will now pay for it.

just skimmed over the article but wasn't she paraphrasing the author of a book written in 1933? I wonder what the context of the discussion was?

I don't think this was a discussion. The article says she got caught on a hot mic.

The two with pronouns in their names appear to be the most aghast. Ole Noah just sitting back waiting on the bad weather to begin.

If only they would all say what they really believed... they would agree with her.

yep, and this would never go over, but if they would understand that most stereotypes are rooted in a bit of reality and pointing out facts isn't necessarily being racist

My favorite is Laney. Almost a “better you than me” look. Or “I can’t believe and existed person could be that much of a dimbass to say that out loud.”
