The interview was in response to an incident at a Martinsville City Council meeting where a group of the most gifted and talented students of the region were presenting a quilt they had made for Council to display to the public.

“They weren’t prepared for that. They all cried” said Dr. Nina Huff, the teacher who taught the class and led the presentation. After the tense encounter Huff and all the children left Council Chambers stunned and in shock.

The child was being post-racial and not thinking in racial terms at all. The child will from now on, though.

After reading it again I wonder if she’s a carpetbagger? People in Martinsville don’t speak with that kind of vindictiveness towards children.

“I don’t take out the garbage”

She must have servants do that.

Sounds like this council person is itching to find “racism” anywhere and everywhere, hoping for any excuse to be “outraged”.

Next, we will outlaw the saying ‘being in the dark’ about something because it’s alluding to negative as black.

Good grief.

Some people. That poor child.

Sometimes I hate human beings.

Hmmm.... perhaps we do need to begin to reuse the N word.

There seems to be at least one

https://www.facebook.com/SharonBrooksHodgeDEMANDRESIGNATION This is calling for her resignation. Please feel free to join and voice your opinion on the matter. We will be taking up a petition to have her removed. All you need is 630 signatures from registered voters in Martinsville. She has offended no only some nice students that were presenting a gift, she took the entire Black community down the next day by saying she is not one of your ‘locally home grown negras, I don’t shuffle, I don’’t tap dance and I don’t take out the garbage” Which means she thinks she is superior even amongst our race. She needs to get out of office now.
