As is the case with any system built on maintaining power and systemic oppression and discrimination, like NYPD, FDNY, and NYC DOE. These changes aren't happening because people are crying or jealous, it's because people are speaking up and fighting back. Hence the changes that have slowly happened in the overall leadership and some policies. Clearly it is upsetting to see it happen to you and people who look like you but people are angry for the many years of discrimination and people want retribution. It's not the right thing to do but I certainly understand they're reasoning. Whites haven't blinded themselves to it, minorities have just gained white allies and others have finally felt safe enough to do so publicly, like abolitionists on the underground railroad. People who recognized for many years what was happening and believed it was wrong and when they've gotten into power, they've tried to correct it and fix the system. They're not perfect by any stretch, but they're trying. iteach4alivinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06655846638712018871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-2549176671007103392016-05-23T21:20:14.154-04:002016-05-23T21:20:14.154-04:00I heard Dwarka from Bryant auditioned for some X R...I heard Dwarka from Bryant auditioned for some X Rated film, but the director paid her to keep her clothes on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-2266811537009627462016-05-22T21:00:53.451-04:002016-05-22T21:00:53.451-04:00I will once again point to the principal at John B...I will once again point to the principal at John Bowne HS.

That school is under state review and all the veteran staff will end up as ATRs on a yearly rotation, a year from June.<br />In the immature minds of many young men a (heterosexual) porn star would be looked on as a demigod. There's a moral clause for teachers and there should also be one for principals. There's no way he should be principal of any school.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-9420687925339236442016-05-22T13:41:27.896-04:002016-05-22T13:41:27.896-04:00Rewards, thats commonplace.

She fired two black teachers and cut the third one's program. Among the whites she harassed us so badly that nearly all left. Now the teaching staff is about 80% latino, 10% Asian and 10% white with ne black immigrant teacher. The ENTIRE office staff is latino also. We have a new pair of latinos in charge this year, and they are further purging the staff. An Asian guy just got fired and several new staff members came on board this year - all latinos! <br /><br />When people speak about inclusion, diversity and harmony and all that, all I do is look around and point to each ethnic and racial group looking out for its own and pushing others out. That is reality, and only whites have blinded themselves to it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
