Not only does the story make no sense, but the disputed picture makes no sense. Some quality schooling going on here.
“...but the disputed picture makes no sense.”
Yeah - when I read the article I figured it was the boy “saying” “I’d rather be reading.” Then I could understand the teasing.
“Hey Ladarion - you too good to hang out with us homies now?”
“Yeah - he’s readin’ like a cracker now!”
“You think you’ll get a job just ‘cuz you can read? You just a dumb N****** to ol’ whitey”
“C’mon homie - you gotta hang with us instead. Or else.”
BTW - that also happens with the white boys too.
