Back in school whenever we had to read books about history, and the n slur was there the teachers would just say “blank” or “I don’t say that word” and move on. Nobody should use that type of language in the workplace. It’s rude will hurt the black kids in the room—or anybody really. It’s getting old, seriously.
This is so sad you as a teacher can not force a student to say such a hateful word. If you teach your students to say that like it’s nothing your wrong those students could say it outside school and get assaulted by someone who does not appreciate it. She does not need to be teaching. That student seems so uncomfortable hope he’s parents complain
Yea, I need ALOT more context for this article. Was the student being a smart alek and she was approaching it accordingly? Was the student purposefully causing a scene over the word during the teachings of the literature? This article is NOT ENOUGH to make any determination as to whether the Teacher was in the wrong or not.
I went to a continuation high school and most of the teachers had a pretty relaxed attitude towards profanity due to all the rebellious kids there (they didn’t care if they used profanity to describe strong emotions, as long as it wasn’t directed at anyone), but they absolutely forbade the use of any slurs, to the point where I don’t think we read any of Mark Twain’s books.
That’s unacceptable behavior without a doubt. Let’s also state that these kids now a days are punks and get away with murder on how they treat each other and their teachers and nothing gets done about it. I just saw a article where a student knocked out his FEMALE teacher for taking his Nintendo switch away in class because he kept playing it.
You know.. We have a article of a student which is supposed to be there to learn with his teacher in his face, using a racial slurr over abd over and over again. Shes so bold, that she even leans in, displaying behaviors on par with a bullie. I mean, how much worse can it possibley get?! The poor young man cant even sit in class at high school without beijf berated by his own teacher, reminding him just how racist of a place America is, even in 2023. Its sad, disappointing, embarassing and disgraceful to see this take place in a class room by a teacher, where young people are there to learn. Just think, this is one article recorded by a student. Imagine how many times some racially charged event happens thats not recorded on article.
She needs to be fired. That’s absolutely not ok. Everyone knows how to spell that word, the fact that she keeps saying it, and how she commented on it being a word in the dictionary, and that everyone can say it. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. It’s not appropriate at all for a teacher showing such disrespect behavior. Saying it not once, not twice, but over 15 times! She was trying to push a point that was uncalled for and out of line.
I’m in my 40s. When we read Mark Twain in class we had a discussion about the word and why it was in the book that is a classic and why it is no longer acceptable to be so freely thrown around. Because times changed and we grew and adapted and learned. Apparently times are changing backwards now and the older I get the more I just stop liking people altogether. F this B.
There are TEACHERS who genuinely love to teach with patience and maturity that have gone through enough life experiences to actually guide students in an appropriate way no matter what they ask you……… and then there are people who just did enough class work to finish school and get a job teaching. She seems to be the latter.
It is not just about how the article caused backlash, how she was reacting coming from a teacher, or what she was saying in class… it is the fact that she acts and thinks like that as a person. She does need to be disciplined at the same time having her to go through more training doesn’t solve nor prevent the issue.
wait? We read a literature book in highschool with the N word being used many times. With a classroom with mix diversity of asian, hispanics, caucasian and blacks,everyone was mature enough to understand this is how people spoke like in the past. I feel like when it comes down to it yes its an offensive language in our line of history but man am I tired of young generation taking it so too heart when they haven’t experienced it themselves. It’s something we should all understand is part of history but just respect it if anything.
Sounds like she was set up, but I wasn’t there. I don’t use the N word nor do I think ANYONE should be bale to use it. PERIOD! Black people saying it, then get upset when a non-black says it. That’s 2 different standards. I don’t want to hear, “WELL IT’S DIFFERENT IF A BLCK PERSON SAYS IT, IT MEANS SOMETHING DIFFERENT WHEN A WHITE PERSON SAYS IT.” That’s BS. Harassment is on “HOW” it’s taken, not what is meant and that goes BOTH ways. At my last company in Afghanistan in 2021, we had a little discussion about how a black grandma cooks and if the food would be better or same if a white person did “EXCATLEY” the same thing beside her. Which would the guy like better. I mean gram for gram, stirring time, temp and EVERYTHING the SAME! He still said his grandma would be better! BS Kind of like Will Smith in I-Robot movie when his grandma baked, but it was the robot doing the baking, Just saying. and by the way, I have mixed family members and I DO NOT use the N word, even when we are messing round.
When people show you who they are…BELIEVE them. This woman showed her true character for the world to see. Seeing someone of her old age act so manic and hateful is embarrassing. If you are a non black person and u want to say the N word, please say it!- let the world know who you truly are so we can steer clear from ppl of your nature.
That word is on every single male or female youngster’s mouth now days regardless if they’re not that color why are you complaining about students are kaka now days very disrespectful to teachers and adults they don’t respect their own mother or father because they’re the same laims . Leave that teacher alone sounds more like a setup to get her in trouble!!!
nothing to some of the teachers I had in the 60s 70s, they were tough son of a guns who took no prisoners, you wanted to fight and cuss, no problem they were bigger and better, my science teacher was a commando who was in the Normandy invasion WW2 DD1 juno beach, he took no shit from no one, but at the same time if you wanted to learn he was 100% with you,
The person who they’re interviewing is also racist through her explanation. She had a smirk on her face and it wasn’t a nervous laughter. It was a smirk of agreement, but she knew she had to be politically correct in front of the camera. That’s why she suggested retraining and pulling the teacher out not termination and loss of her teaching license, which would be more definite, finite and appropriate. You can tell a lot about peoples true feelings by their pussyfooting around, obvious cut and dry answers.
They do condone it, if this woman is still teaching at that school. Just horrendous. And then that child has to see his/her abuser in the hallways, knowing that he/she and his/her classmates weren’t protected. This School District did nothing to ensure a safe and welcoming learning atmosphere, after that incident.
As a native speaker of a Romance language (the languages that invented the word “negro”) I find it odd that English speakers not only use a variation of this word, but additionally, they have decided that such word is “offensive”. Reminds me of how they also find “offensive” that Romance languages are heavily gendered .
But yet again a black person doesn’t get in trouble for saying that word to the same race where’s the consequences to that and no I’m not favoritism the teacher I’ll understand people have bad days no one is perfect and she should be disciplined not fired at the end of the day people are getting too sensitive and Schools not following policies letting students bring phones and should of being handled within the district and the campus instead of telling the media period!!! At the end of the day its everyone fault that was involved
She knew full well what was in the book when she chose to share it in class. Are there no other students in that classroom? No other pages to read from in that whole book? I’ll bet she was wringing her hands together with glee just thinking about the exact student she was gonna call on to read certain pages. She was definitely bullying the student, aggressively up in his face with probably a little spittle coming from her mouth. Unacceptable!
It’s crazy how this is getting out of hand. I’ve had issues with literature in class but I always address sensitivity of the issue as well as the era. Yet I had a student joke about the word and even call me a racial slur in front of class when I asked them to complete an assignment. There are always two sides and often article of occurrences don’t show what led to the escalation. Often students think it’s funny or ok to increase tension or hostility in class. I had a parent tell me that I should not be so sensitive to being called a racial slur if I know it’s not true. Then instead of an apology they advised me to look do a new career or get better training 🤦♀️
Id never say the word. Especially to a child. This teacher needs to go. No doubt. I have a question to the black community though. And its a serious question. Im not racist. Just want to know. Is it offensive if a black person uses the word towards another? Happened a lot when i was in school. Just wondering how that makes y’all feel
People love to act shocked in public when they hear it but we all use it in our lives sometime just because it shocks. Of course that is only if you are not black, Blacks use it daily iin casual speech and it’s ok lol, well, I say no. Wish I had a dollar for everytime I hear the word “cracker” used in a negative fashion and if I got my panties in a bunch, I’d be a sad case. The brat baited the teacher then as usual, the race card wavers started their 💩
As a black person, I feel awkward for them that some of their favorite songs have the N word but they apparently can’t say it out loud. I think we as a human race need to stop being emotionally controlled by words. The facts are: We use it freely amongst ourselves, we use it freely in songs, and it was used freely in a book by a famous author. Now she’s going viral for using it freely. I don’t really see anything wrong other than her yelling at someone else’s child while she’s at work. 😒
The problem is that these kids are not mature enough to handle a classic novel by Mark Twain…and probably frustrating the teacher. Lets be honest …they way students speak is shameful. They are not all that inocente and yes the teacher could have handled it better. But for her to loss her job….come on 🙄
I am an African…. though we don’t have a problem saying it here… because to us it’s funny and we mostly laugh over it… because we are not slaves I read a book and the mean of the N word means (BLACK SLAVE) So i understand perfectly well if it is difficult for people in the US used .. considering their HISTORY
It sounds like the kids are fearing for saying this word and the teacher was trying to make them understand that it’s ok to say the word just not as a “racial slur towards someone”….. That’s where the confusion is at. My regards towards the teacher who seemed a bit of frustration over this issue, hopefully everything goes well for her and her teaching career.
This isn’t how you educate kids! Aside from learning Math, Science and other subjects that are principally part of the syllabus at all schools, Parents send their kids to school to learn morals, inculcate values of life, how to be respectful towards others. This kind of stuff is demoralizing to kids, and they are scarred for life.
Always have a conversation with the students about that word before starting reading a novel in which the word appears. I would not be comfortable using that word in class with my students, and there are versions of the novels with the word “slave” instead that are probably more appropriate for young audiences.
The teacher may have thought the black girl with the camera would have seen her trying to call the male student out for trying to get her to spell the n-word in front of the class. But instead of being grateful, the girl with the camera perhaps misunderstood & used the situation to play a victim. I’m not 100% of this and could be wrong, but this seems to be a valid possibility. The black girl w/camera may have regret now and be sorry. Just maybe.
It’s not clear in this covert article who the teacher was berating and trying to get them to say racial slurs. If her target was the student in the black hooded coat or the person to his right side. Can you tell what race the boy is in the black coat? (And, doesn’t he look big for a ‘middle school student’?) (It would not surprise me to hear he’s actually ‘high school age’, but was held back a few years.) The teacher is correct that parts of our society has gotten overly sensitive to racial slurs, given that those words are unequally embraced by racial groups in their culture. Her over-bearing teaching style was out-of-line nevertheless.
The teacher is right. It’s really WEIRD that this word is the last sacred thing in America. Even weirder that we have created a two-tier society where it depends on your skin-color whether you are allowed to say the word or not. If you have the right skin color, you can say it all day every day. Make billions saying it every other word of a song. If you have the wrong skin-color, it’s literally national news if it’s said for any reason. It’s really WEIRD. It’s a psychosis.
Just save Mark Twain for college level American Lit… not suggesting removing the book from schools, just leave it off the lesson plan. Kids can read it on their own if they want. Mark Twain is great and a fun/easy read for teens because he writes in vernacular, but he did not shy away from controversial subject matter.. Mark Twain was a huge advocate for black people’s rights and yes he used the N word to make his writings about black people as realistic as possible.. you cant write about America without writing about racism after all. We read Mark Twain in my college American Lit class, but professor let black students read the parts with the N word and allowed them to talk about their feelings about it and what it means to them.. it was actually very therapeutic for everyone in the class i think
