Some white students at a South Jersey Catholic school walked out of classes Tuesday in protest over a speech by the New Jersey Secretary of State Regina Thomas.

Tensions have been building up at Paul VI High School since Thomas' speech on racial justice last week.

Wouldn't it be great if someone recorded the speech and provide a transcript?

Blacks are allowed to be racist. They claim that it is only whites who have the power in this country so therefore blacks cannot be racist. Bill O'Reilly may cover this story but the liberal media will be scattering like the cockroaches that they are since it is about black racism. If it was about white racism, it would be the lead story everynight for a month.

OMG I actually though all this had changed

Why would it?  If any time you made a mistake you can and blame it on race, would you stop?  Did poorly in school and now have no future?  You didn't do it ... the "man" did.  The race card is suddenly a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card for any problem you have.

I think it's just the times we're living in. Schools want to hide what they teach/tell the kids. The lack of info is their way of telling the public to butt out. The public school is now the private lab of the lefties.

Can you provide a link to a transcript of the speech?

Until then, this is article about "something," but we don't know what the "something" is.

The articles never tell us exactly what this woman said. It must have really been bad.

Yeah, when they have to hide the facts, you know it's got to be bad.

SO did I, but it was true. They had to be hired, but instead of working, were first paid regular wage while taking a free Post Office provided remedial reading class, while the position was held open for them.

"Notice that the story doesn't mention any of the actual comments she made."

Inexcusably bad journalism, but not surprising.

I just find it impossible that if they wanted to recruit black people for the PO, they couldn't find qualified black people who can read. Which state was this in?

Racist Regina Thomas gives speech on racism, non-racist students walk out in protest of racist speech. Schools fails to protect students from racists, no film at 11.

That is a silly and naive notion. There is racism coming from all fronts. Remember what racism is. Its the hatred of someone because of their race. However, that being said, perhaps if there were race issues at the school, it would have been better to have the students facilitate and discuss that on their own and then deliver the results to the student body instead of allowing an outside person to agitate and instigate. I am a black my husband is white. I have seen the ugly side of racism from both black and white people. It really still does exist. While being black in America has shaped who I am, it is not ALL that I am. So it is easy for me to rise above these situations and recognise that ignorance is a very INDIVIDUAL thing.
