Saw this film Well done Only thing is dad transferred his identity issues and insecurities to his son The jury is out regarding whether elite independent schools are optimal environments for young black boys I say not

I love the way the parents protected him emotionally and educationally but never compromising on the realities of what his experiences may include Bravo!

Check out the current staff demands being made by this woke school For 54k they have been remote only and making ridiculous demands Time to pull your kids out

@compendioussuccient6784
The mother is projecting race onto him She’s literally indoctrinated him to believe it There was zero racism in that at all You’re not equipping your son you’re creating a mindset that will become a self fulfilling identity for prophecy

@carlaeyyy649
College prep at 5 years old? I feel sorry for him The pressure he I'd under must be astounding But also I don't blame the parents They're doing what they believe is best for their son

@akinkunmicook2977
Telling The funny thing is, I see more of myself as a boy than I see in my own boys However the endgame will probably be the same

@nnekaokonkwo8271
The response to Black children's behavior in school is often punitive The disciplinary action taken is much harsher; the consequences and punishments are weightier

@jawilli6
The making of a soft AA man on tape 🤦‍♀️ His Mother is confused herself, the father needs to grow a pair Being black is not his only identity

@InsipidRoustabout
There’s something wrong with a culture that makes fun of people talking with proper grammar, Ie “talking white”
Comment from : @InsipidRoustabout


@jo-anncarroll263
This is a must see for educators and students
Comment from : @jo-anncarroll263


@dillonandsteph
as a kid you do not want to be different it is scary, but as you get older you realise being different doesnt matter because you find that people who are different are the people who make a difference in tthe world

@MrYouTube1Y92
Bullshit there is also white privileged and it is an institution that is much older than that of the 1
Comment from : @MrYouTube1Y92


@BBN111
Such a smart boy As sincere and innocent looking as he is, they don't believe him when he tells the truth What a shame that at 11 years old, he's already expecting to be treated differently (meaning less) and has even accepted that he has to work twice as hard in order to get even We Africans think we have it hard out here (South Africa) but it really doesn't get any easier out there in the world does it? What a shame
Comment from : @BBN111


@LDoubleUTelevision
