Ron Clark: 'Where are the white people at? Don't be silent'
A post from a local educator on recent high-profile fatal police shootings is spreading across social media.
In the post, Ron Clark, co-founder of the Ron Clark Academy, says, "I see racism through a different view; I'm a white man who watches my students as they are treated with caution, disdain and misunderstanding."
Clark goes on the implore white people to "be leaders in this movement to end the racism and misunderstandings."
"If only African-Americans speak, I promise you, people only hear the "angry black people who are being ridiculous," he writes. "It takes white people to have the courage to speak up when you hear racism and let others know it's not acceptable."
Clark made the post on his personal page just before 4 p.m. In less than four hours, it was liked more than 17,000 times and shared more than 13,000 times.

Okay. But the situation as it is now...are blmmers going to be chanting "Pigs in a blanket-- we just fried 4 like bacon"?

High crime rate. Low academic performance. Majority of babies out of wedlock. Etc. all caused by undetectable white racism?
Why doesn't the Left, especially black teachers and leaders, lay down the moral law with blacks? Where's the black teacher to say "I'm a black man who watches my [black] students act with aggression, disdain, and misunderstanding"? -

You could go out there.
From the OP link:
Ron Clark, co-founder of the Ron Clark Academy, says, "I see racism through a different view; I'm a white man who watches my students as they are treated with caution, disdain and misunderstanding."
Well, duh, Ron, stop treating your students that way. -
Ron runs a school for blacks. So, he doesn't have any freedom to speak honestly, doubly so because he's white. If he said he's trying to clean the ghetto out his students, his school would instantly implode.
Look at Ron, mocking blacks by acting like a monkey right in front of them. And, where's the diversity in the mural? -
Why doesn't the Radical Right and lily white leaders son the right lay it down for these racist and racially prejudiced police officers? Could it be that the folks on the right don't have a problem with the racism and racial prejudice? Does explain why some of you are okay with DOnald Trump.

Black culture is defined by crime, illegitimate children, low academic performance, government checks, and defense of black criminals and racists. -
Donald Trump has a rather big following in the "Blacks For Trump" movement. Interviews with black employees would shut your false narrative down alone.
It makes me wonder if you've ever marched with BLM.
Where's the white teacher or the white police chief who says I watch my police officers act with disdain and with little regard for the life of black and brown people?[/QUOTE] -
So like I said, don't confuse your bigotry with a lack of proof.
Just disgusting. But that's getting to be pretty regular out of Mr. Smyth. -
What I see is a tremendous amount of black racism directed toward whites and Asians on a daily basis. Sure blacks kill and injure their own in numbers that are grievous. However, the killings and assaults upon whites and Asians in America by black thugs is way out of proportion to the percentage of blacks in America.
The racism charge against Trump just will not stand under a fair examination of the facts.

Lately I get bored every time I see your name. Your comments are so inane, they aren't worth my time to read. Nice strikethrough function. -
Zaac, over 2000 (overwhelmingly black) people have been killed in just Chicago alone, so far this year. But, what gets you fired up is an armed and uncooperative thug getting himself shot by police, something that accounts for a very minuscule fraction of all blacks that die at the hands of another. That's some seriously twisted thinking on your part. I don't think black lives matter to you. -

I have posted very sparingly in the last three months or so. Therefore, you are fibbing.
But the one thing I was uncertain about was put in the form of a question. Have you ever marched with BLM? -
You've spoken your silly version of the truth.
Have you ever marched with the KKK or run around with a sheet on your head?

Sometimes I think the "black community" would be better off ignoring all these condescending white liberals - "you don't know what it's like to be black", as if they do. They are only pandering and their solutions just always make black lives worse instead of better. -
Now answer the question that I have posed for you several times now: Have you ever marched with BLM? -
Should paint you saved your less to a Maury Pauvich audience.[emoji57]
It's amazing that as completely unorganized and unfocused as they are, that little group has caused the big bad radical right do much angst [emoji38]
I must say you guys are exists at trying to demonize anything and anyone you feel like is a threat. You did our with Obama. You're now trying to do it with Hillary. You've tried to do it with BLM.
It's hilarious to watch. And y'all think everyone is too stupid to notice the pattern[emoji38] .
[emoji33] Yikes. I must have allowed you to confuse me with a child. You don't give me orders.
So get on back to your GOP Klan rallies. Back to ignore.
