Most Ignant thing you've heard in class/anywhere

[pinkies up]

A parent of a student of mine was complaining to me about one of the other teachers in my building. She looks at me with a serious face and says, I'm glad you're one of those good blacks, then proceeds to hug me.

Due to the smackdown she received, I am currently on house arrest and looking for another job. (ok, this part isn't true, but I was really close to smacking her @$$)

IT.WOULD'VE.TAKEN.EVERYTHING.IN.ME.TO.NOT.CUSS.HER .OUT.

I would've given her a "talking to," though. She needs to be set straight as to not get her ass handed to her by someone else in the future.

Believe you me, I did go off on her but in a way that she needed a dictionary to understand the words coming out of my mouth. Needless to say, I don't meet with her anymore and she avoids me at all costs.

I took a Black psychology (yes there is such a thing) course one summer and I loved it. The class was very diverse and it made for interesting, sometimes heated conversation. So......once we were talking about stereotypes and a white student made the statement, " my granddaddy told me the reason Black people are so good in sports is because they have an extra muscle in their leg." I'm like oh snap our secret is out!!! A part of me felt that she still believes this is true. idiot.

LMAO!!! I'm sitting here dying!! On a serious note I'd love to take a Black Psychology class.

There are so many ignorant statements I could think of right now, but they all come from rap songs.

U shoulda told her "no hun, it's cuz we are way more primitive than our Caucasoid brethren and it just so happens to show best when we leave you eating our dust on the field"

Background Info: Non-tradional student in her 50's. Always kissing up to the professor and trying to answer questions...one of those who will make class stay longer for a professor to answer questions and for her to make comments when everyone is ready to go.

While in Sociology on the topic of Race and Ethnicity after the professer called out other random things for us to answer about black history and she wasn't able to answer one...

Professor: There was also a lady that was significant, who didn't want to give up her seat on a bus

Ms. Know it all: Oo...oo.. I know Harriet Tubman

The class laughed so hard, that he had to dismiss us. I wouldn't have laughed so hard if it was from anyone else, but she just knew that she was right.

I felt bad afterwards, because she looked like this .

I would've told her, "I'm definitely a good PERSON because any other one would tear your behind up. But it's people like you who make me want to act like one of "the others."
