Feeling like the school district is going to settle this one

quote:

A white teacher at a rural New York public school is accused of questioning a pair of light-skinned Black students about their fair complexions, asking both — in front of a classroom full of kids — if they were “‘pure-bred’ Black,” according to a staggering lawsuit obtained by The Independent.

Monique-Gale Messina, an educator at Eldred Junior Senior High School in Sullivan County, also scrutinized the texture of the teens’ hair, according to the suit, which was initially filed in New York State Supreme Court last month before being removed to White Plains federal court on Tuesday.

In response to complaints to the administration by the two students, who at the time were in the ninth and eleventh grades, the lawsuit says school district higher-ups said Messina could not possibly be bigoted “because… she ‘ate tacos’” — that is, Messina is LGBTQ.

Jesus.

I have never heard "ate tacos" as a synonym for a carpet muncher.

I loved their old jingle-

“Taco Tico for a mouthful of fun!”

Ultimately, “despite the clear and unequivocal findings” of wrongdoing, Messina was not removed from the school, nor did the district take “any steps to protect [D.C. and T.B.] from being subjected to further acts of racial prejudice, discrimination, and unwarranted hate,” the suit contends.


Yeah she better enjoy teaching there while she can.

Then there's this:

D.C. and T.B. have since undergone mental health counseling to help them deal with the incident, according to the lawsuit.

I'm as much a mental health advocate as anyone on this site but this is soft as Charmin.

The contention that you can’t be prejudiced against black people because you’re gay is frickin wild

I have eaten enough tacos literally and figuratively to get a lifetime bigotry pass according to this superintendent

In order to make a fair judgement, Oldmanbeasley needs pictures of the taco eater as well as the taco that was being eaten. Was this just a single taco situation or a full on taco Tuesday buffet?

That BS is about $$$$ for the parents and the lawyer not the kids. It’s like the black girl who was allegedly damaged for life when the parade or park mascot didn’t say hello or shake hands with her because they had to keep parade moving and just had a little bit of time at each stop or slowdown (may have e also been something about she was was trying to grab them which wasn’t allowed and was not supposed to be rewarded). Out of all the kids that got similar treatment this little girl was so badly harmed in life that she need those dollar bills times a million to make her right…

At press conference they put a mask over her face because she didn’t care at that point and couldn’t keep up the victim face like her parents.

They really think that because of how they vote they will be treated as one of them.

The smart and rich ones do their best to live in whiteness and then vote and donate their white liberal guilt away as penance.
