This is ridiculous. This is NOT the 1960s. #JimCrow has fallen. We can all ride wherever we want to on the bus, drink from the same fountain, use the same restroom, and chase the same dreams. #RacismMustEnd #EndDiscrimination

That seems reasonable. If he should get lunched for not studying, per his teacher, she should also agree that someone should get fired for making racist threats, oh I mean jokes, to a minor. It follows the teacher's same logic after all.

Oh and maybe, as with pedophilia, we could have a watchdog list so that we can see who these people are in our schools and neighborhoods. Keep our children the hell away from them.

Um yeah? I would think everyone would want her removed.

Really? She made a bad decision by making an off color comment & she immediately apologized to the boy in front of the class. The boy is black in a nearly all white class - everyone's aware of this. Now you want her to lose her job???

They were studying this era of U S history & his poor performance was costing his class "points". Her joke was on subject but still insensitive; however, ABC's lack of perspective makes this sound worse than it was. The boy said "It's okay, I know it was a joke."

What if the mother is unreasonable? The boy freely accepted her apology & said, "I know it was a joke." There was nothing inherently evil in the joke. It didn't embody a threat. So you want everyone's employment to be subjected to anyone's interpretation of something we said?

That Teacher should be sacked immediately! Teachers are not only employed to teach;but to also protect the students and to build their confidence.

So for perspective - they were studying this in class & the boys poor performance was costing the rest of the class "points". It was an on subject joke which she immediately apologized for. The boy replied, 'it's 'OK' because he knew it was a joke.' Thanks ABC for a fake story.

The teacher should be disciplined, & the student should focus on his studies to pass the class, just like everyone else.

WHAT??!!?? Yes, that teacher must get fired. Teachers lead by example and that's flat out teaching racism in a classroom. This teacher is representing a school in that town. Are the citizens in that town okay with this??
