A racist social studies teacher in Osceola County, Florida by the name of Tracey Brown went on a tirade saying she has “as much right as anybody else to dislike blacks”.
The incident actually took place during a Zoom lesson when Brown started criticizing students for supporting the Black Lives Matter movement.
“You’re implying that Black lives are more important than anyone else and I have a problem with that,” Brown can be heard telling one student.
“There’s some Black people that live in communities where the cops do not treat them right,” a pupil named David interjects.
In response, Brown yells, “Stop right there, David. Stop! I wanna be very clear. What you don’t know about me could fill a friggen’ swimming pool.”
Brown goes on to say, “I was 16 years old and I was attacked on a MARTA train by a gang. And yes, [a] gang — wearing bandanas, gang sings, language — of Blacks. In Metro Atlanta.”
Instead of immediately firing Brown though despite the blatant racism, the district opted to reassign her while they conduct an investigation.
A Change.org petition has recently been started demanding disciplinary action be taken against the racist teacher.
