not everyone is obsessed over skin pigmentation. Just liberals

Having good teachers is far more important than having teachers whose skin color distribution matches that of the community.

I taught math Pete, in an economically challenged public school in CT. I didnt look like many of my students, It didn’t stop me from being great at it. Teachers need to have mastery of the subject material, have the ability to communicate, love their kids, be engaged with them, and have the fire to avoid getting burned out which is way too common. Skin color doesn’t matter with any of that.

Skin color won’t make a bad or
mediocre teacher, any better. It just won’t.

i don’t know what that case is. i never said there isn’t racism out there. but here’s the difference between us, i feel
racial discrimination is always bad. You think it’s good when liberals do it ( shocker).

So is it worth doing anything about racism or only if it affects whites?

Cause it’s certainly the incidents that affect whites that trigger you….
