A teacher stated she avoids topics like racism. How does avoiding the topic of racism (for our comfort) impact our students who are living and experiencing the current and historical impacts of racism?

Today, I showed a TED Talk about the Guatemalan genocide. We were discussing the role of forensic anthropologists. It made such an impact on my students. I teach in a super red state and district and often my students do not see the pain of our Central American neighbors and why they seek asylum here. I tied their plight to my mom’s post-WWII and asked them why she was welcomed by our current immigrants are not. It was so powerful. One of my LatinoX students told me thank you for today’s lesson.

To the Antiracist Educators, when we have trolls who do not understand what being an Antiracist means, would you like me to allow them to post even though they are clearly posting here with no positive intent?

I could block them. They can easily go post somewhere else.

What do you think we should do?

I’ll leave this question up for one week.

Recently, as you probably know, Dr. Seuss's estate chose to stop printing a few of his older books that had offensive racial stereotypes. There was huge backlash from white people, including teachers here, screaming "cancel culture!"
Now we have a white guy who murdered eight Asians in custody, unharmed; while the police officer who killed an African American man for allegedly trying to pass a bad check is about to go on trial.
Full disclosure: I'm white. But I'm still enraged by all this. You?

Something to think about... If you awakened tomorrow and your skin was a different color, ask yourself how you might feel and why? Don’t respond directly just think about that. Imagine you are not the enlightened person you are. 😬

Answer this: What does that say about what has become subconsciously engrained within most of us?
