Race Conversations
The Race Conversation This isn’t a Black Lives Matter post, yet it is. Does that make sense? Today, we had a meeting with David at his school because he got caught hacking the school network and surfing pornography during class time. His punishment is loss of technology privileges for the rest of the semester. In addition he has two days of in school suspension. The suspension has to be successful without redirects from the school principal. He will have redirects from the teacher, this is a given, but if the principal gets involved, then his day in suspension won’t count. Make sense? I have no issues with that. All of this is merely the setup for the conversation I had to have with him. The Conversation David wasn’t expecting to see me today. I happened to be in the city near his facility and school, so stopped to see him
