@no1marauder saidSo you are saying that firing people because they are white before all others, regardless of seniority or performance, isn't racist?
Again, right wingers have no idea what the word "racist" even means.
You should stop parading your constant ignorance in these matters; remedial measures to address past racial discrimination are the very opposite of "racist" or "racism".
I think you are the one that doesn't know what "racist" means.

@jj-adams saidThey are not being fired "because they are white". Unlike the previous situation where blacks weren't hired because of racist beliefs in their inferiority, these hypothetical future dismissals would merely recognize that these white teachers were beneficiaries of previous illegal hiring practices and not further punish black teachers because they weren't hired due to racist beliefs like you hold.

This is a remedy to racist practices that has no relation to the idea that one race is superior or inferior to another.

@earl-of-trumps saidThere are no "innocents" being "sacrificed" if they are *volunteering* to this agreement. Those white teachers are willingly putting *themselves* at a disadvantage,
For a bunch of self-loathing white racists to sacrifice a totally innocent person because his/her skin is white
- IS AS BLATANTLY RACIST AS IT GETS.
So no, still not racism.
@earl-of-trumps saidYet you don't mind being used as a tool by racist white Republicans.
@JJ-Adams
I've been preaching it in here for a long while... the Democrats are the most racist people in America. Period.
Those haters SUCK

Seems like the Minnesota school board is coming under a lot of heat, and not just by whites.
"Racism is evil and you can't fix racism with more racism" says the nice black couple being interviewed.
They are a whole lot smarter than most of you libtards and free thinkers here:

@jj-adams saidAside from points others have made (including you spouting blatant racism yourself in this very thread -- truly richer than Daddy Warbucks winning the lottery), the chance that any teachers are going to be laid off within the lifetime of the contract are essentially nil. Teachers are in extremely short supply across the country.
Doesn't get any more outrageous than this:
https://www.foxnews.com/media/minneapolis-teachers-union-agreement-stipulates-white-teachers-laid-off-first-regardless-seniority
Plus, when they start hiring back laid -off people , whites will be last to be considered for rehire, regardless of seniority.
Before you whine about how it's Fox news, etc, the story is all over other news channels.
They are coming for us, folks, and they are not even trying to hide it anymore.

@soothfast saidTHEY ALREADY ARE in Minneapolis school district because of the drop in student body enrollment, THAT'S why it's being made such a fuss over.

Get a clue, Stu.
@jj-adams saidNot to mention Mommy and Daddy Warbucks don't want their pristine white kids being taught by black teachers.

Maybe THAT'S what "the fuss" is about.

@kmax87 saidI’d watch that one, David is very white so he could get quite close to them and study their anti social structure before the big replacement.
Eventually they will have documentaries on Nature Channel with a voice over by a David Attenborough type who will whisper, and here neatly camouflaged to blend in with the environment we have the white lilly livered whinging worker. Reports of them going extinct have been grossly exaggerated. Join us as we investigate their herding and migratory patterns as huge swarms of them leave the comfort of known parts and head into the wild unknown.
