White Teacher Under Fire For Singing 'Monkey' Song On Black Boy's Birthday

Yep. I was a young child living in Montgomery Alabama during the 60s. "Colored need not apply" "Colored water fountain" and "Colored Bathroom" were signs I remember because they were so confusing to me.
Signs when the Irish came over....."Irish need not apply". The only jobs for Irish were a Priest and a cop.
 
A white teacher in Florida is under fire after she sang a "monkey" birthday song to a six-year-old Black boy at school.

In a video shared on TikTok, the boy's classmates and teacher first sang the traditional "Happy Birthday" song to celebrate the occasion. The teacher then delivered what the boy's mother believes was a racially charged version of the birthday song.

"Happy birthday to you. You live in the zoo. You look like a monkey, and you smell like one too," the teacher recited, leaving several children visibly uncomfortable and confused.

The mother of the boy, identified as six-year-old Legend, called the teacher's song a racial insult.

“I’m sharing this so people understand what my son experienced in his classroom. A birthday should be celebrated with kindness, not racial jokes from an adult in a position of authority," the mother said.


Let's see how many of the right wingers make excuses for this.

What a disgrace.
They’ve been singing that one since I was a boy. Nothing to do with colored people

Fire the teacher
/-----/ Then the teacher should sue for wrongful discharge based on the fact that the song was not specifically banned by the principal or school board.
You can't make up rules after the fact and then discipline someone for it.

The teacher is incompetent and an idiot and should not be teaching children
