The really offensive part of this is that these teachers are being treated like royalty. They should "appreciate" that they already make more than three-quarters of the population when you factor in benefits.
So how do you think black people would feel about white kids showing up in blackface?
How much in damages would any offended party be awarded with profuse apologies from the school board and an ‘acting stupidly’ comment from you-know-who? But white people are supposed to ‘suck it up’?
I’d only be offended if it wasn’t true - the trash part.
I wouldn’t be offended by black people showing up in white face. After all, if they want to portray a white person, they should try to look the part, otherwise no-one will get it.
“I don’t have anything to say,” Beckner said
...so she’s shocked!? How dare honkeys complain after they’ve spent so many years oppressing blacks!~sarc. Who’s performing the teacher messages? Students? How about “Welfare Wednesday”? “Food Stamp Friday”?
Is that supposed to be funny?
Senator Robert Byrd (D) continued to use the word ‘nigger’ well into the 1990s if not beyond. He defended his continued use of the word by explaining that there are “white niggers” as well as “black niggers”. And liberals honored him at his funeral.
Liberalism is a mental disorder.
So the left hates White people. No surprise there.
“My kids school has a day where the Kindergarteners dress like old people for the 100th day of school ... sweaters, shawls, walkers, canes, white spray-painted hair. Its fun for the kids.’

Isn’t that just adorable. /sarcasm.
I’m 80,and have no shawl,no walker,no cane,and my hair never turned gray. I haven’t a clue what sweaters have to do with it-—even infants wear sweaters.
Gee,what fun those kids must have giggling about those who do need walkers and canes.
Unbelievable !

In the article, she mentions that a local restaurant serves BBQ on trashcan lids. I’d think that they are copying that place — some local lore
Muffin top Monday and the massages though — that’s a bit creepy

Okay....now THIS is bizarre....another school with the identical theme, but check the article, some of the phrases that people use are IDENTICAL... odd as a cod

Good grief. My 92-year-old grandmother thought it was cute ... and she actually had a walker.
Never known somebody from the WWII generation that was quite so fussy about something so harmless as a kindergartener dressing up like a 100-year-old.
So much for stoicism.

Encouraging kindergarteners to treat them as objects of mockery isn't the slightest bit amusing and plants a bad seed in their minds.
Hey, why not a Cerebral Palsy day or a Terminal Cancer Patient Day for a real hoot?
And elders rightly understood how not to take themselves so seriously that they would regard a kindergartener’s stereotypical 100-year-old costume as “disrespect”.

Have you been to Federal Way?

Thanks,Madam D. I was beginning to wonder if my sense of humor had become warped in my dotage.

She never complained, and soldiered on.
I learned to have compassion for the elderly struggling silently to maintain their dignity and trying not to burden others.
These kids are being taught the wrong lesson, your cavalier dismissal notwithstanding.
