Reply #15: my elementary school had a token black [View All]

As the school, John L. Webster elementary, is in malibu by pepperdine, the only
black kid was "flip wilson's" son, kevin. He was abused less out of racism and
more out of ignorance on reflection. I actually think his treatment was worse than
what is described in this article as i recall the taunts even now some 4 decades
later.... when you put 1 black kid with a bunch of white kids who don't know much
about races, ignorance and negligence alone can spark some serious racism.

This story could happen anywhere in the US. It is the fact in a culture that is
so racially divided, that young, very ignorant children, would be open to any number
of influencing authorities amongst hidden racist parents. Then it is the parents
that are responsible, not a school where their kids went to abuse a kid.
