As a mother the one thing you don’t want your child is embarrassed over ignorance. When you are ignorant to a fact you simple do not know. If you do not know go ask somebody. Yesterday my son came home with his shirt turned inside out, glitter on his face from the shirt and a note from his teacher. He looked crazy, walking around with his shirt inside out. How tacky is that? I raise my kids to have pride in what they go out like and this shit made me mad. Go out looking GQ smooth come home looking like a hobo.
Maybe I am over reacting but this is my child, and its bad enough my two kids go to a school where there are only 2% African American 95% white and 3% other… ( 420 kids total 1st-6th grade )
Anyways..The note read :
your son was told he would get a suspension from another facility member for wearing any political affiliated apparel, if you have any questions please call me.
So of course I called her and a couple other people. My son is 11 and due to the fact it had nothing negative on it, it was within the school policy as being appropriate to wear. My son will continue to wear it. I told his teacher, principal, and the lady who told him to turn it inside out that.
To make the matter worse 2 of his teachers had Obama pins on..So I’m like WTF they can rock their pin and he can’t wear his shirt.
Well I guess I did enough complaining cause I got a call apologising and was told he could wear it140_proud_black_voter_white.jpg
