Huntsville is in north Alabama.

Huntsville is a terrific town (a high-tech area; NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, Redstone Arsenal, HQ of the Army's Missile Command, countless defense contractors, etc., etc.); most of my family is still in that area. I attended high school there (not at Lee; at a crosstown rival), and back then (early '70's), one could walk through the projects, alone, at night, and not think a thing about it. The races got along pretty darned well all in all. This just smells like yet another in the long list of "Political Correctness Run Amok" incidents of which we hear so often these days.............

I can't help but wonder what the latest and greatest songs by Ja-Rule, Ludacris, and DMX, this treasured student were listening to when he/she left school that day.

A white science teacher ....

I wonder if this story would have even been a story had it been a black science teacher who had made the remark?

quit acting like a "project n-----."

You don't call white folks crackers

Shouldn't the second sentence be:

You don't call white folks c-------

[Elsie]

quit acting like a "project n-----."

But.... how many "Project African-Americans" GO to this school????

.....said Moore. "Based on my findings, I will deal with the situation."

And if the 'student' WAS 'acting' like a "P A-A", THEN what???

I currently live in a suburb of Huntsville. Did the teacher actually say that? Who knows?

The biggest laugh of this entire article is James Dawson's comments "Dawson said that he is blind to race, but not racism." Dawson is the biggest racist this side of Al Sharpton. The guy sits on the Board of Education. To hear him speak, you would think he was illiterate.

Funny story. I know a coach that teaches history at crosstown rival J.O. Johnson High School. This high school has been taken over by the state because the grades have gotten so bad. They sent a new principle in to "fix the problem".

Her first week there, she scheduled an assembly for the entire 9th grade class. The teachers (my coach friend included)told her this was a bad idea. She wouldn't listen. So, they rounded up all of the 9th graders.

Here they are, 300 or so of them, laughing, talking, cutting up. The new principle walks up to the microphone.

"Children". No effect.
"Children, let's take our seats." No effect.
"Children, that's not how 9th graders are supposed to act."

The hubbub quietens slightly and a voice calls out, "F*** you, B*tch".

Assembly over. Just another day at J.O. Johnson.
