r/teachers makes a poem about student excuses. Some users aren't amused
Thread:
(4) "Cause I ain't got no pencil" : Teachers (reddit.com)
Popcorn ready
The poem is clearly rasist: https://www.reddit.com/r/Teachers/comments/105rcx2/comment/j3cy2ox/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
"This racial implications of this post are okay with me if this is actually a poem written by a a young black woman, or if it is a black adult writing about their experiences.
If this is a white person trying to write about their students, then maybe don't go out of your way to emphasize the race of the girl."
Post is cringe, OP should leave teaching
"If you don't think anyone encounters frequent racial microaggressions, you might be white. "
Dialects exist
