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.
when you say “doesn’t exist,” what are you really saying hmm?
They’re trying to say “[systemic racism] doesn’t exist.”
But all i hear is “I’m a racist”
Yeah this is what I was trying to say. It doesn’t exist and no I am not racist, but you’re welcome to make that leap. Go fuck yourself, cunt.
No, it definitely exists, and you are a racist, cupcake.
Doesn’t exist for them
