Her doing racist behavior for 9 years doesn't make it any better, it makes it worse.A California public school teacher was placed on leave after a video emerged of her wearing a Native American headdress and chanting in front of her class while teaching trigonometry. Get called out for something racist, don't take responsibility, and instead blame cancel culture.
It's easy for someone not targeted by racism to downplay it. But we're seeing behavior like this where it goes way over the line a lot more often recently.Īlso, as is often the case, cancel culture is not what caused her to do that, it's the repercussions from doing something wrong. You always could tell if a teacher had a strong leaning view on things.
There has always been a little bit of that. I've heard quite a few stories of teachers lately letting their racism and/or political views come into their teaching of young students in different ways, which is kind of terrifying. This also I don't think is an isolated incident. She's still responsible for her behavior though regardless, particularly as a teacher. There is a small chance she's got mental issues or is possibly somewhat autistic and this lead to her poor decision making on this, but that's not really a defense. Our Western Christian culture tends to be overly forgiving sometimes, and the apologists for her behavior are seriously grasping at straws. It was incredibly racist to perform that, in a MATH class, to NATIVE AMERICAN students. Are all mentally ill people racist or something? Do all people that do drugs do insensitive things about Native Americans? See how far this rabbit hole can get when anything can be a agenda. But in the end unless she turns her nose up and does it again I would consider it a lesson learned, give an apology, and don't do it again moment.Īt the same time it's also a little cringe to rope it into mental health and drug abuse if you want to be all super sensitive andy's about it too. Now that it's all over social media she probably is going to need to take a little time off for optics. Sure, the teacher probably needs to hear this from her boss. At best this is a REALLY cringe act that probably needs to stop not only for being pretty insensitive but also because it's just not very good at getting the point across in the math lesson. Why deal with ten unhappy people when you can make it three million and get dollars. Because these things are bad but bagging up the acts and spreading them across the world for money is dope af am I right? Not only now do Native Americans that might have been in proximity get offend but we can get them ALL offended now. For sure if it can go viral while pointing it out.
In America everything is racist, sexist, and probably both. Playing on the stereotypes of vikings and Norse people, is that worse than a kid dressing up as a native American and doing a rain dance across the floor? If the history channel makes a whole show with hipster looking vikings, falsifying the history and customs, Years, surviving inquisition and Christian threats, are still being practiced. The customs that have been done for thousands of Heck, even you Endus, are probably practicing some Nordic custom that are millennia old.Įven talking the Germanic tongue that the English adopted.īut here in Scandinavia, the grave mounds are still tall. While the Native Americans had to deal with the Christian Europeans, so did the Norse.īoth cultures where stripped of their creed and beliefs, through violence and force.īoth had a rich history with many customs, where much has been lost, some of it has been kept, and the descendants ofīoth cultures are still practicing many of the customs.
You're either grossly ignorant and pushing someone else's disinfo about it because you've never bothered to question anything your leaders tell you, or you're lying about it on purpose to push disinfo yourself.Įdit: Specifically, a failure to grasp the difference between cultural appropriation, acculturation, assimilation, and so forth.Ok so.īoth native Americans and The Norse people where victims of the colonial powers of their time. Willful failure to understand what "cultural appropriation" means.
