This is ****en insane and who in their right mind can condone this.

It is clear these children learn from their racist parents and the school board is racist too

How are displays of inclusivity political? What is happening in this country


Conroe ISD trustee argues displays of racial inclusivity and pride in classrooms should be removed​


CONROE, Texas (KTRK) -- Some Conroe ISD trustees want to crack down on displays of racial inclusivity and pride, saying they represent, "symbols of personal ideologies."

One trustee says a child was traumatized by a poster showing different colored children holding hands and had to switch classrooms.

School officials against this say a policy prohibiting political displays, not related to curriculum, already exists. The trustee who brought this forward didn't realize that.

When it was brought to her attention, the trustee said she wants that policy to go further. Citing "a number of parents reaching out to her about supposed displays of personal ideologies in classrooms," Melissa Dungan asked her fellow board members to crackdown on them.

"I wish I was shocked by each of the examples that were shared with me, however, I am aware these trends have been happening for many years," Dungan said.

When pressed to share one of those examples, Dungan referred to a first grade student whose parent claimed they were so upset by a poster showing hands of people of different races, that they transferred classrooms.

"Just so I understand, you are seriously suggesting that you find objectionable, a poster indicating that all are included," Stacey Chase, another trustee, said.

Conroe has become rather a bedroom community of Houston. Just FYI.
 

More racist bullshit coming out of Texas.
 
Right. One person in one town always equals a racist state.

Why are you resorting to dishonest bullshit instead of criticizing the racist argument described in the OP?
 
That school is doing a disservice to the students by removing posters showing diversity.

Like it or not, those children (and especially their future children) will be living in a United States and a Texas that have a majority that is no longer predominately Caucasian.

Those children must learn the realities that await them.

Find somebody else to be hostile to please. And do the math while you're at it: One remark by one person doesn't indict an entire state.
 
You know that Texas used to be part of Mexico and that many Texans are Hispanic, yes?

Was it racist bullshit? Did it come from Texas? Yes to both. You're failing at this spectacularly.
