She also needs to convince black parents of the same...Does anyone ANYONE here no of ANYBODY’s child who would behave in such a way toward a cop the way Michael Brown did that day? Do you know ANYONE who would act in such a way?
Yesterday, one of my black students said that “Anyone would have acted the way Michael Brown did toward that cop.”
My jaw dropped and I realized I would be able to teach that student precious little.
Ugh...”no,” should be “know”
Come on coffee! Do your job!
Your black student’s statement is contradicted by the fact that Brown’s criminal buddy Johnson did what he was told and got out of the middle of the street without attacking the cop. Johnson is alive today. Brown is not.
