Suspending the student was apparently to protect her from harassment.
Maybe I’m the weird one here, but I thought that was certainly an interesting choice to make when you could have suspended the students who were doing harassment.
So you'll have like... 4 kids left in the classroom.
Exactly, do this more and maybe we wouldn't be in the shit storm we're in? No let's punish the innocent ones, really?
It's almost like... If you let people get away with and even benefit from doing bad things, they'll do bad things.
Yeah, it would be better to punish the racist rascals, but the issue is that growing up benefiting from an Apartheid state just means the racist attitudes will get reinforced back into the kids. Actually addressing the racism inherent to a settler colonial society requires a lot more than disciplinary action against little kids.
