#WeMustSeparate A 16-year-old high school student’s family is filing court papers, alleging that a Long Island school neglected to step in and prevent a racially-motivated attack by a white student and that they helped to cover up the incident. According to an NBC investigative report, Zion Guzman-Milton had to have 32 stitches in his head in 2014 after an emergency surgery to ease the swelling in his brain following a knockout punch delivered by a white student at Valley Stream South High School. Guzman-Milton suffered a hemorrhage and skull fracture because of the attack, which the family claims was racially motivated. Guzman-Milton said that the attack occurred when he was getting his book out of his locker and the other student approached him and began calling him racially insulting names. When Guzman-Milton tried to walk away, the other student hit him, and the next thing he knew, he was in the nurse’s office. Guzman-Milton’s family claims in the papers that the school did nothing to notify authorities, and that they had to call an ambulance themselves as well as get the police involved, NBC reports. Father Chris Milton said that the principal was furious when police arrived with the ambulance. “This lady was very disrespectful, saying that we did something to them as opposed to something happening in the school to our son,” he said. What’s more, Guzman-Milton saw his attacker back in school after only a few weeks and has been bullied and harassed about the incident ever since. He and his family say they are speaking out now to try to bring the conversation about race to the forefront before things get worse.

The Dean of Students at a Florida middle school has been suspended for racist and sexist comments he made to students and fellow staffers alike, News4 Jacksonville is reporting. According to Duval County Public Schools investigators, John Bouchard, the dean of students at Arlington Middle, has made a series of inappropriate comments to female staffers, including, “Here she comes with that ugly Jewish face,” and “Black women in power can be difficult to deal with and like b*tches sometimes.” On another occasion, Bouchard told a female colleague, “You look like you got some last night.” But the administrator’s offensive comments weren’t limited to his colleagues. Bouchard reportedly told one female student, “You had to go deep into the hood to get that weave,” while mocking another, saying ” you probably live on food stamps.” After suspending another student for becoming upset when the cafeteria ran out of food, Bouchard told him to “suck it up” and look at the suspension as a holiday. According to investigators, Bouchard also bullied student enrolled at the “Bridge to Success” school, saying he could get them kicked out the program designed to encourage and educate at-risk students. The school district said that this is not the first time Bouchard has been called on the carpet. In February he was given a verbal reprimand for inappropriate comments made to female staffers. Bouchard was suspended for 15 days without pay. #WeMustSeparate

When a White teenager gets caught doing/saying something racist, you sometimes hear their parents say, "He/She wasn't raised to hate others". That maybe true. They may not have raised their children to be racist but the media teaches them to be by doing stuff like this! #BlackImagesMatter #WeMustSeparate
