Dear Supervisor I Wish Would Hurry Up and Retire:


HOW DARE YOU. There is nothing in this God-given world that would make this situation her fault. She is a beautiful little girl who was unjustly shoved into her own locker. "Accident" or not, she had every right to say something to the boy who did it and what he called her was COMPLETELY out of line. Words like that can shatter a young black girl, as if she didn't have the rest of the world trying to destroy her beauty. At this age, she is vulnerable and fragile and what he said has the power to utterly devastate her spirit. For you to sit up there and tell her it's her own fault for speaking up when she was shoved and "it would never have happened if she hadn't said anything" absolutely burns me to my core. NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT SO SAY SUCH FOUL THINGS TO ANYONE, ESPECIALLY NOT A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL WHO WAS STANDING UP FOR HERSELF. If you ever tell another child that the things a boy calls her are her own fault, whoever is above you will be hearing from me promptly.
