An Atlanta elementary school principal segregated its students based on race and one mom isn’t having it.
Kila Posey filed a discrimination complaint with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights after claiming Principal Sharyn Briscoe of Mary Lin Elementary School put a segregation policy in place. Apparently, she thought it was best for all students.
Posey told local WSB-TV, “We’ve lost sleep trying to figure out why would a person do this.” She and her attorney, Sharese Shields, believe the segregation policy is a violation of federal law.

It’s the latest in a long line of incidents where American schools have been dragged into the racism debate. In a shocking incident in March, a five-year-old Black kindergarten student in Arkansas was made to unclog a toilet full of feces with his bare hands by his teacher for using “too much toilet paper”. In April, the video of an Arizona middle school employee who used the N-word while ironically asking students not to use the racial slur went viral. The same month, a California teacher asked parents to come at her in a Zoom rant and said Whites ‘get everything’.
Sharyn Briscoe is the principal at Atlanta Public Schools. According to her LinkedIn profile, she was educated in Spelman College, a historically Black liberal arts college, also in Atlanta. The school website states that Briscoe traveled to Atlanta from New Jersey to attend Spelman College and Georgia State University. She worked as an elementary teacher, model teacher leader, assistant principal, and principal before joining the Morris Brandon team in 2013. Spending time with the students and seeing them succeed is Briscoe’s favorite part of her job. TJ and Marley, her two sons, live with her in Candler Park.
He better hang these on the restrooms.
You don’t have to forgive her, but you can pity her for not having a loving maternal instinct.
Sounds good to me. If I had kids I’d want them kept away from the hoodlums, also.
You’re not being overly dramatic. I think she should go to prison on child abuse charges and whatever other charges involving health risks could be added.
Imagine if a WHITE principle had done this. blm/antifa would be burning the place down. Instead….crickets.
A kid in my brothers first grade class spilled his milk. The teacher, a nasty old bat of a nun made the kid lick the floor clean.
Years later she ended up in jail for child abuse.
Good training for future prison life for students of all races.

I am unsure whether the adults in these incidences are black or white.
The majority of Americans might approve if they put it to a vote. Is one a racist if he or she prefers a white neighborhood?
Yes, but the question is, does segregation of black children done for their benefit, BY WHOEVER, constitute what you are calling "racism"?
“You don’t have to forgive her, but you can pity her for not having a loving maternal instinct.”
That is an excellent way to look at it. Thanks! :)
“I think she should go to prison on child abuse charges and whatever other charges involving health risks could be added.”
Good point. What if the boy had an open would on his hand? Quite possible given his age. What bacteria or viruses could have entered his body?
The destruction of America goes on!
Where’s the National Guard???
“Yes, but the question is, does segregation of black children done for their benefit, BY WHOEVER, constitute what you are calling “racism”?”
YES.
By segregating the students the person/entity doing the segregating is saying loudly and clearly that student group A is superior to student group B. That student group B is incapable of performing to the standards of group A because of race.
Wasn’t that the argument old school segregationists used in the first place?
IF segregation is along grade lines then all races should have some representation in the superior group A. The question then becomes how to teach group B in such a manner that they have the opportunity to advance to the grade level of group A.
Ya feel me?
You forgot the /s.
It’s pretty obvious that old school segregation was considered bad not because it was harmful but because it was pushed by white Americans. The new black segregation is clearly a better version.
I know it's contrary to current law, but laws can change. If it were legal, why not?
