The episode illustrates an ongoing debate over lessons about racism and discrimination in Kansas schools. Critics say schools’ efforts to promote diversity can breed white guilt and accelerate racial conflict.
WICHITA, Kansas — A Kansas high school principal was forced to apologize for showing a video about White Privilege during an employee meeting.
Tim Hamblin, principal at Derby High School, shared a four-minute video during a staff in-service day last month that featured Black author Joy DeGruy. In it, the author relates a story about being treated differently at a store because of her race, and how a lighter-skinned family member spoke up for her.
“She used her White Privilege to Educate and Make Right a Situation that was wrong,” DeGruy says in the 2011 video. “That’s what you can do every single day.”

Sickening that he showed the Video?
Sickening he was reprimanded for showing the Video?
Sickening someone had an issue with the content of the Video?
Sickening someone was critical of a video that explained we should all be treated the same?
You response leaves much to be desired, I am hoping it was because he was reprimanded.

Many Trumpers alluded that the main military objective was CRT training. What is ironic is Trump is susceptible to the ills of CRT by not listening to legitimate claims that blacks face more violence in police custody.

Just wondering if the "offended" board member and superintendent are white.
