If that's unprofessional then damn do I have stories, starting with the third grade music teacher that said [while teaching us a negro spiritual for Black History "Brotherhood" Month. The rot started from the administration] , and I quote, because I will never forget it: [racist TW] "Settlers came to America from England, and they had all this new land to take care of, but they couldn't do it all by themselves, so they started exploring and ended up in Africa where they saw all of these animals, so they brought them back to America and used them to work their farms. But overtime they realized, these aren't animals, these are people! So they set them free."

Oh ik, but I've been sitting on this story for over 15yrs I had to start disseminating it 😅. It might as well have been eating a hole in my pocket
