The "N" Word
Recent situation in the Atlanta area that I wanted to get your opinions on....Two African American 4th or 5th graders were fighting. During the fight the "n" word was exchanged between the two. A white teacher broke up the fight and also used the 'n' word. According to the teacher she used the word in the context of a lesson on it's inappropriateness. Question: Is it ever appropriate for non-African Americans to use that word? Did the teacher do the right thing? How should the school system disipline her (if at all?)
