Two Black teenagers have been suspended from a Sacramento school after they allegedly circulated a fake dollar bill with racist imagery towards black people throughout the campus, The Sacramento Bee reported.
Well, there's nothing unusual about teenagers doing stupid stunts, but not usually something that insults themselves. The fake money showed a racist caricature of a Black man on the front, along with a website domain that contained more racist content. The fake money stated it could be redeemed for fried chicken or liquor.
A spokesman for the school district Brian Heap said ""It really speaks to our need as a district to do more in terms of fully educating kids about the history behind this word and just try to clear up some of the (misconceptions) they must have that lead them to use it so cavalierly,”
Hmmm. I wonder what "misconceptions" he's talking about. District diversity, equity and inclusion monitor Mark Harris said he's been on an "emotional roller coaster" over the stunt. "This is the third time we’ve had perpetrators of a racially motivated incident identified as African-Americans,” Harris said.
“It’s pretty bad when our kids, for whatever reason, think that it would be popular for them to have a negative depiction of our own.”
I don't think these school leaders are getting the idea quite right about what this stunt was all about.
