Been following this hashtag for a day or so. What’s fascinating about racism in schools is that the black teachers are more often than not at the centre of institutionalised racism. In case you don’t know what I am talking about #blackat is about experiences of black students in predominantly white private schools. I think this is more out of fear for loss of USD salaries than lack of empathy for fellow blacks. Moreover its not like somebody is holding a gun to the head of parents forcing them to put their kids through hell. I’m fact I m informed to get into such schools parents get into a waiting list of up to 6 years waiting for a place,bribes have not been ruled out as well. So who is perpetuating racism in schools…
