HOW’S YOUR PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH, YOU RACIST?

After reading this blogue, I hope you will not inundate me with; “thanks” or “Well-done, Del Bloggolo”! Think of this as a public service to educate you as a reader, I am leaving you on the brink of cutting edge social awareness.

There is a Harvey Scott K-8 school that has taken on the ugly face of racism, and what better way than the insidiousness of a kindergartener’s lunch bag. Yes, those little brown paper sacks of social inequity that 5 or 6 year olds, all the way up to 12 years old are spewing!

The Peanut Butter Sandwich!

racism at its most delicious

It seems the principle of the Harvey Scott K-8 school: Verenice Gutierrez thank God has identified this horrific social injustice, identifying the peanut butter and jelly sandwich as racist!

Genius Gutierrez

“What about Somali or Hispanic students, who might not eat sandwiches?” Gutierrez asked. “Another way would be to say: ‘Americans eat peanut butter and jelly, do you have anything like that?’ Let them tell you. Maybe they eat torta. Or pita.” Hopefully they will tell us that in English, too, so we really understand.

Of course we cannot stand there with just peanut butter and jelly, no there is the sexist grilled cheese sandwich, which I’m sure is an insult to women everywhere. (Cheese, follow me here folks) How about the ham and cheese, you anti-Semite bigot? Not to mention the meatball hero, you stereotyping buffoon.

I have to tell you, I was appalled that my mother made me into a racist, all those years consuming peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, not to mention grilled cheese, having to now hide my face in shame!

If we all join in together we can!

Gutierrez instituted "intensive staff trainings, frequent staff meetings, classroom observations and other initiatives," to help educators understand their own “white privilege,” in order to "change their teaching practices to boost minority students’ performance." The first day of the school year for staff, for example, the first item of business for teachers at Scott School was to have a Courageous Conversation — to discuss the 'white privilege' peanut butter and jelly conveys,

“Our focus school and our Superintendent’s mandate that we improve education  for students of color, particularly Black and Brown boys, will provide us with many opportunities to use the protocols of Courageous Conversations in data teams, team meetings, staff meetings, and conversations amongst one another,” wrote Gutierrez in a letter to staff.

Of course it shouldn’t end there, no there is still Apple Pie!

My impression was that the immigrant children in our schools were here to learn about America, to be assimilated and part of this culture, to learn and practice English. Once again I was wrong, it is to put the ridiculous together with the idiocy of over-liberalized boneheads that seem to be taking over. I think you all better be learning to say the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic or Espanol!
