Unfiltered Story #280729

(I am a white teacher working in an urban area. I am the only white full time teacher in the school, and my students are all African-American of Hispanic. I am helping my co-teacher by babysitting one of her problem students. We teach pre-k, and this child is four. I am currently sitting with my feet propped up against a filled metal filing cabinet, my back against the sink, blocking him from threatening my other students with scissors. Again. I am trying to chat with him and help calm him.)
Student: “F*** you, n*****!!”
Me: (looks incredulously at my bone white arm and laughs) Honey, you don’t know what that means!
