Also the tweet is simply a flat out lie. Here is the source that the tweet is referencing:

https://www.google.com/amp/amp.usatoday.com/story/85526458/

"The new data, out Tuesday from the U.S. Department of Education and required by Congress, show that African-American K-12 students are 3.8 times as likely to receive one or more out-of-school suspensions as white students. While 6% of all students received one or more out-of-school suspensions in the 2013-2014 school year, the percentage was 18% for African-American boys and 10% for African-American girls."

It simply cites the numbers of students being suspended by race, not that other races are not being suspended for similar activity.
