STORY: TODAY MY SON RECORDED HIS ART TEACHER Mrs. KAREN SAVAGE ( HER REAL NAME) and sent me and his siblings, this video of her and picture, I raise my children to know right from wrong, and he knew this could not go unseen. I immediately headed to the school to pick him up and speak with admin!!Today at Barrington Middle School (Hillsborough County Public School System) Florida, his art teacher took the time to wrap a charger cord around a Black baby doll’s neck and hang it directly over the classroom television for the entire room to see.Look at the photo. Look at the video. When the children called out this blatant, disgusting act of hate and asked why she hung that doll by its neck, she laughed it off. Her excuse to our kids was that she did it “to get their attention.”This emotionally affected ALL the children in that classroom. My son’s friends of different cultures and races were all deeply offended and disturbed by this racist act. These kids stood united, grabbed evidence, and wrote official statements today.This is NOT a classroom management tool. This is straight up hate and trauma being weaponized in front of our children in a place where they are supposed to be safe.We spoke to the principal, and we are told the decision is now in the hands of the Hillsborough County school board / Professional Standards department. We are watching closely, and we are waiting to see exactly what this district is going to do. Will they protect our children, or will they protect a teacher who simulates a lynching in a classroom? This will NOT be swept under the rug!!Share this everywhere!! Our community needs to see exactly what our kids are dealing with,all While trying to get an education from people that we believe care about our future our children
