Speaker 1: It's time for Donkey of the day. Donkeys of the day.
Speaker 2: I'm a Democrat, so being Donky of the day is
Speaker 2: a little bit of a mixed so like a donkey deal.
Speaker 1: Okay, Don'tky of to day wreck the club bitches.
Speaker 2: Now I've been called a lot of my twenty three years.
Speaker 2: That donkey of the day is a new white.
Speaker 3: Yes, donkey today for Thursday, May eighteenth, goes to Glendale
Speaker 3: High School in Missouri. Uh and an unnamed teacher at
Speaker 3: Glendale High School in Springfield, Missouri. See, there is a
Speaker 3: fifteen year old young Caucasian girl named Mary Walton who
Speaker 3: goes to Glendale High School. Dropping the clues bombs from
Speaker 3: Mary Walton. Okay, she was in geometry class, minding her
Speaker 3: business when her teacher tried to put together a geometric
Speaker 3: sequence that simply doesn't add up.
Speaker 1: All right. See, there's this word.
Speaker 3: That no matter how many times you tell people they
Speaker 3: shouldn't use it, they will find a way, all right,
Speaker 3: doesn't matter what race the person is. We all know
Speaker 3: the historical context of the word. We know why the
Speaker 3: words shouldn't be used by anyone. I don't care if
Speaker 3: you think it's a term of endearment or our racial slur.
Speaker 3: It's a word that is divisive and it's just too
Speaker 3: much blood and baggage on it for it to ever
Speaker 3: be positive.
Speaker 1: But yet we can't keep it out of our mouth.
Speaker 3: All Right.
Speaker 1: The word I'm referring to is the N word.
Speaker 3: All Right. I wanted to say it so bad, but
Speaker 3: I'm trying not to. I've been trying not to for years. Okay,
Speaker 3: By the way, I really haven't found a better way
Speaker 3: to describe these ninjas than the N word. Matter of fact,
Speaker 3: I want to apologize to all ninjas out there. Why
Speaker 3: do we do that to them?
Speaker 4: Okay?
Speaker 3: Why is ninja's a default for the N word? We
Speaker 3: love ninjas? But back to the N word. This young
Speaker 3: fifteen year old Caucasian girl, Mary Walton, was suspended because
Speaker 3: she recorded her teacher repeatedly saying the N word.
Speaker 1: Yes, I told you.
Speaker 3: They was in geometry class and Mary's teacher presented a
Speaker 3: problem she didn't have an answer for. And guess what
Speaker 3: the reason I'm not saying the teacher's name is because
Speaker 3: they didn't release it. I didn't give us the teacher's name.
Speaker 3: They released the young minder's name, but not the teacher. Why,
Speaker 3: I don't know, but we do have audio. This is
Speaker 3: the teacher presenting this problem to his geometry class.
Speaker 1: Let's listen. I don't word at all, but I don't know.
Speaker 4: It was like when when a black person is using
Speaker 4: it towards another black person, it's the same.
Speaker 1: How is it not? Still I don't I don't get it.
Speaker 4: I mean, I can't say right.
Speaker 2: Now as a teacher, if you want to keep your job,
Speaker 2: this isn't the I'm calling anyone.
Speaker 1: I understand.
Speaker 3: I wish we didn't bleep the word. I mean in
Speaker 3: that context. I feel like we should use it for
Speaker 3: research purposes. But I agree with the teacher that when
Speaker 3: a black person uses it towards another black person, it's
Speaker 3: still a derogatory word. I don't use the word in
Speaker 3: that context, like how YG used it on my N
Speaker 3: word of how stupid c Murder used it on down
Speaker 3: for my N words. Now, sadly, I use it the
Speaker 3: way the white man intended it to be used. Okay,
Speaker 3: but this teacher is fullish. Okay, if he's smart enough
Speaker 3: to say he doesn't like the word at all, then
Speaker 3: why is he using it at all?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 3: If you can acknowledge me the teacher that you don't
Speaker 3: like the word, and the word seems derogatory no matter
Speaker 3: how you use it or who uses it, then why
Speaker 3: are you using it?
Speaker 1: And more importantly, you.
Speaker 3: Heard the student a student, okay, one of those youngsters.
Speaker 3: And that's why these youngsters give me hope for the future.
Speaker 3: One of those students said to him, don't say it
Speaker 3: if you want to keep your job. If a student
Speaker 3: tells you that, and then you still continue to use
Speaker 3: the word, and then even you know, after other students.
Speaker 1: Said don't say it, your response is you can say it. Well,
Speaker 1: who gave you permission to say it?
Speaker 3: And how did you come to that conclusion after acknowledging
Speaker 3: that you don't like the word. This is beyond confusing, okay,
Speaker 3: But what's even more confusing is the fact that Glendale
Speaker 3: High School suspended the fifteen year old girl for recording
Speaker 3: what you just heard. I can't make this up. Let's
Speaker 3: go to CNN for the report.
Speaker 4: Police video shared on social media shows a high school
Speaker 4: teacher using the N word at least twice in a
Speaker 4: Missouri classroom. Mary Walton, a fifteen year old student, disturbed,
Speaker 4: began filming The teacher was initially placed on and minused
Speaker 4: straight of leave. A week later, that teacher has resigned,
Speaker 4: but Mary was also punished suspend it for three days
Speaker 4: over the recording. The school district says its discipline is
Speaker 4: quote confidential per federal law, but noted that the student
Speaker 4: handbook limits inappropriate use of electronics and considers the identification
Speaker 4: of minor students when disseminating video. The school district also
Speaker 4: prohibits quote recording of faculty or staff in the classroom
Speaker 4: without prior approval, and recording quote acts of violence. Ho
Speaker 4: claims that the policy is problematic and it has a
Speaker 4: chilling effect on students like Mary looking to hold authority
Speaker 4: figures accountable.
Speaker 3: Oh, it's just in the Daily Mail reports the teacher's
Speaker 3: name is Kenneth Bowling.
Speaker 1: Oh we got a name, Kenneth Bowling. He's the teacher's name. Look.
Speaker 3: Wait, the first one is to tell kids, if you
Speaker 3: see something, say something. But I guess in this case
Speaker 3: is if you see something, say some unless that's something
Speaker 3: is racism. And I understand it's rules and regulations, but
Speaker 3: you do know you're punishing this little girl for doing
Speaker 3: the right thing. So let's just say the school has
Speaker 3: a no recording policy. But if this teacher was, you know,
Speaker 3: God forbid, assaulting another student or you know, whether it's
Speaker 3: sexually or verbally, is someone not supposed to record that?
Speaker 3: You're definitely deterring kids from keeping track of teachers of
Speaker 3: misbehavior by suspending Young Mary, because the next time a
Speaker 3: student sees or here's a teacher doing something wrong, they
Speaker 3: gonna mind their damn business because they don't want to
Speaker 3: get in trouble. This is like that law in Arizona
Speaker 3: that bans people from recording police. A lot of people
Speaker 3: in Arizona protested against that because it violates their First
Speaker 3: Amendment rights and it keeps them from holding police accountable.
Speaker 3: Not that police really care that they're on camera, but
Speaker 3: you understand my point. Look, there is plenty of times
Speaker 3: when a person recording should be held accountable. For example, Okay,
Speaker 3: if somebody set up the tripod and hit record for R. Kelly,
Speaker 3: absolutely makes perfect sense to discipline them.
Speaker 1: For their recordings.
Speaker 3: But when a child is being verbally abused by their
Speaker 3: teacher with racist words, it doesn't matter what the school
Speaker 3: policy is on filming. That young lady should be treated
Speaker 3: as a hero and celebrated. Okay, I don't care what
Speaker 3: the student handbook says.
Speaker 1: I get it.
Speaker 3: It says students are prohibited from using cell phones to
Speaker 3: make audio or visual recordings. The faculty are staff. But
Speaker 3: what school is going to give a child permission to
Speaker 3: record a teacher saying the N word?
Speaker 1: None?
Speaker 3: Okay, So this is a perfect example of Look, sometimes
Speaker 3: two wrongs do make a right. According to the laws
Speaker 3: the culture, the teacher was wrong for using the N word,
Speaker 3: and according to the laws of the student handbook, the
Speaker 3: student was wrong for recording him. But this student was
Speaker 3: also right because dumb ass people got to be held accountable.
Speaker 3: And if that teacher thought he had a pass to
Speaker 3: use the N word, he now know he doesn't. In fact,
Speaker 3: one could argue Mary saved that teacher's life Kenneth Boling,
Speaker 3: because if Kenneth Boling would have used the word the
Speaker 3: N word around the wrong.
Speaker 1: N words, it'd have been bad for him.
Speaker 3: Please let mem Ma give Glendale High School and then
Speaker 3: unnamed teacher the biggest he haw.
Speaker 1: He haw, he ha. You stupid, mother, are you dumb?
Speaker 1: You just got you just said the tea his name
Speaker 1: Kenneth Bowling. Yeah, you said the unnamed teacher.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry Kenneth Boland. I'm proud of yes, I know, man,
Speaker 3: because it's very hard to say the N word.
Speaker 1: Back to back to back.
Speaker 2: Now, I'm very roll, like you know, you just be
Speaker 2: wanting to say, he know, yeah, I'm very proud of
Speaker 2: your saying nigga. I mean, you didn't say the N
Speaker 2: word one time during that.
Speaker 1: Who they used their word?
Speaker 3: It just say I won't not practicing bad habits, no niggas,
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry you did you See what you did to
Speaker 2: you guys, to see what you did, what you made
Speaker 2: guys tomorrow, see what you made me do? You made
Speaker 2: me do?
