Story time.

So every Friday, I do a class room wellness check. Just to make sure I know every student in the school. Every classroom is named after a University or College, Black and White schools. Today, I walked into "Howard University" classroom. I jokingly asked where is

Vice President Kamala Harris picture since she's the first woman Vice President and an alumni of Howard University. Baby, this white man going to say isn't her policies problematic? I did the confused screw face, and looked at the other teacher where he said, we try not to

Endorse candidates. I said well, to your point, I'm assuming you think drug dealers, gang members and predators should be able to roam the streets in the Black community, and then I turned to the other teacher where I said, she's not a candidate, she's the Vice President.

I then turned back to TA who called her policies problematic, and said name me a policy that was problematic. He mentioned her criminal justice policy. I said for a teacher pushing falsehoods especially on a Black woman is not something you should be doing. I told him to research

Using the laptop that was in front of him because he shouldn't be peddling in lies. The teacher who said they don't try to endorse candidates have a small picture of Elizabeth Warren on his desk, so I told him he should be her from his desk because that's an endorsement.

Both of them looked really annoyed with me, so I took over their class and had a wonderful conversations with 20 students in their class. I didnt have to mention anything political to honor V. President Kamala Harris, basic shit like she's half Jamaican got 5 students to excited

After school was over they both came to my office to explain their thought process, and I wasn't here for it because it was disrespectful and being white men in a school where 99% of the school is Black and Brown students they should be welcoming Vice President Kamala Harris.

I didnt even wait for them to explain themselves, I told them to exit my office because what I'm not going to do is allow you to explain to me why you can't celebrate the First Woman V. P. who actually graduated from Howard University, thats name of your classroom. Honor her.

I told them every Friday I will be give a piece of knowledge of all the Black successful people who graduated from Howard University since yall don't want to be political even though an Elizabeth Warren picture sits on the desk. Play with other students intellect not mine.

I dont ever think they had a Black person confront them because you can see the whiteness of your frustration pouring through their facial expressions. We're not going to deny students the right celebrate history due to your ignorance to history, Black history, Women's history.
