Do you think this picture is offensive?


Mitchell Elementary School in Bridgewater, Massachusetts has apologized after a photo of a visit by a PILGRIM reenactor was mistaken for a SLAVERY RECREATION!

Thousands have shared the picture after it was posted on Facebook and people demand that the "Pilgrim" educator be fired for this photo.

Superintendent Derek J Swensen said that the black girl had "volunteered" to pretend to be a toddler and not a slave and has apologized..but that didn't satisfy for those that saw it.

Apparently it was a pilgrilm visiting the school from a "local living history museum" Plimoth Plantation and the educator demonstrated clothing worn by people in the 17th century. The cloth leads connected to the back of the toddlers clothes used to keep them upright while they were learning to walk and the black girl had been roleplaying the part of a toddler, not a slave.

Monica Cannon-Grant however, a boston based gun control advocate is calling for the teacher to be fired and asking why this is acceptable in this day and age.

Pretty much this.

Without context, it looks horrible, but given the context of the situation I say that it wasn't meant to be offensive
This is why nobody takes real instances of racism seriously enough. Its like nobody read the boy who cried wolf because theyre locked in a safe space.

Not at all. If a kid wanted to play a certain role in a play or whatever you wouldn't turn them away because of their race would you? If this educator had done that then people would be calling them racist. I guess the lesson here is fuck what others think as they will try and twist things to suit their own agenda most of the time.

Edit: I've noticed these "outraged" people tend to be shitposts on social media.
One who knows nothing can understand nothing.

perhaps inappropriate, but offensive is a stretch. kinda tasteless to have young impressionable children doing that though.
It does look suspicious without the explanation, but after that I think people need to cool it.

A reactionary who falsely claims racism AND is a gun control advocate? I double-hate her.
