Journalists Robert Samuels and Toluse Olorunnipa, authors of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book “His Name Is George Floyd,” are still unclear why they were told they couldn’t read from their book or talk about systemic racism to a room full of high school students in Memphis.
Two days before an event at Whitehaven High School, they said they were “blindsided” by the last-minute restrictions, which they believed event organizers issued in accordance with Tennessee laws restricting certain books in schools. They said they’d also been told the week before the appearance that their book wouldn’t be distributed at the event.
One thing is for certain, the authors said: The students paid the price ultimately.
That’s how you get the students to read the book. Well done.
Tennessee is doing a speed-run to become worse than Mississippi and Missouri.
why did they comply?
While it would be an epic and radicalizing event for the school to have them arrested on stage, it might not be worth tanking their whole movement for one middle finger in the asscrack of Tennessee.
$$$$, probably
Because it is a theory? That doesn’t exist?
Do you have room in there for one more go fuck yourself? Willfully ignorant pos.
And you got your law degree from which university?
when you say “doesn’t exist,” what are you really saying hmm?
I just wanted to make sure that you understood that when I say “fuck you” I truly mean it from the bottom of my heart.
Imagine thinking I would care. Lmao
You very much do.
Spoken like a true piss drinker
You’re so butthurt and triggered.
Totally bro, my butt is killing me from all the pissing I’m doing into your gaping mouth.
Triggered
You cared enough to respond, I’m just back to watch everyone else trash your shitty ass.
Lmao. The classic “you cared enough to respond” defense.
The best part is that all the “trashing” is just useless name calling. You fucking drones can’t even defend your dumbass theory.
I wholeheartedly support this “fuck you” and second this sentiment.
Hey guy. Fuck you
I piss in your open mouth.
LOL you’re a child.
At least I don’t have piss in my mouth.
Sorry, what did you say? I don’t speak racist.
Yeah I said systematic racism is a theory that is not reflected in reality. It is an unproven theory. Period. Cope.
