A Las Vegas substitute teacher has been fired.
Yeah, that's after allegedly writing the N word and not N word,
but the whole word with the on a whiteboard at a Vegas school.
Now, students from Charles Sylvester Junior High School alerted their
administrators about a male teacher wildly advocating for this lesson plan.
Check out this tweet here.
It reads, they wildin at that school.
And you can clearly see there the racial epithet on the board.
Yeah and so
let's kind of go over what this guy was actually trying to quote unquote teach.
So in a video taken during what was supposed to be an English class,
the substitute teacher explained this to the students.
Check this out.
He said, African features were said to resemble those of monkeys and apes.
Either we can have a fun class today where we actually talk about English.
I was planning on y'all being a bunch of little punks and misbehaving and
this class acting as detention.
I don't know why all of you are making such a big deal when this word leaves
most of your mouths every second, wow, that's really special.
It's truly special, I love it when white people say things like that.
Yeah, well, the Clark County School District didn't really love it.
They acted pretty swiftly in nixing this substitute teacher,
took less than 24 hours, which is a good thing.
And they also issued this statement, I assure you that appropriate action will be
taken against those responsible based on the outcome of the investigation.
Additionally, I would like you to know that this will not be tolerated at our
school or within the school district.
We will not tolerate behaviors that contradict an inclusive community and
impact the needs of our students, that's Yvette Tuppetts, principal of the school.
Now, 8News, well, they did not identify the problematic substitute teacher's
name because he wasn't charged with a crime, got to love that.
But state records did seem to indicate that the guy that he received his
teaching license in January of this year.
So I don't think this is a good start for
him since he's only had this whole teaching thing for a few months.
But apparently we do know that the way it goes in the school district is that
substitute teachers are supposed to take over the lesson plan left from
the instructor that is out.
And in the event that the instructor didn't leave one, the substitute teacher
is supposed to run their lesson plan through the administration and
I'm guessing that definitely wasn't done here.
But I can tell you that I'm really glad that the students documented this,
because this is completely and totally unacceptable.
I don't know who would think this is acceptable.
Who thinks that this should be a lesson plan in English class?
Also, who would use that racist excuse or thought that, well, since rappers use it,
I'm going to go ahead and monolith your entire community and say that all black
people use this term or that it's not offensive when it leaves my mouth.
I just don't understand where this gentleman's logic is, but I really hope
that he's never in a position to educate young minds ever again, that's just that.
>> So I'm curious whether right wingers look at this and
go, my God, cancel culture, this poor teacher.
I genuinely wonder or are they like, well, no, you got to fire this guy.
I mean, he's calling these little kids monkeys because they're black.
I mean, Jesus Christ and he writes this terrible word,
says it's their fault because he assumes they say it.
We can't have him teaching little kids, that's crazy, right?
But I'm gonna say for this video, I'm genuinely curious,
whether they have a rational position like that, which they might, or
certainly some percentage of Republicans might.
And I'm a little worried that some percentage of Republicans are right
wingers are gonna look at that and go, what's the big deal, man?
And apparently he thought that because he's trying to get his teaching license,
he's a substitute teacher, and one of his first things is to do this.
He must have thought, it was gonna be so normal that it wouldn't
have cost him his job, his career, or anything like that.
I'm blown away by that.
How could he think that that was normal?
It's stunning to me, and then I gotta make one random point.
Technically, we're all apes and we're not like apes,
we actually are in the ape family.
And guess where we come from?
We, all of us come from Africa and so that's not conjecture,
it's not a theory, that's a stone cold fact.
So if you don't like Africans, I got really bad news for you [LAUGH].
>> Yeah, it was like Europeans were black up until
10,000 years ago or something like that.
But the funniest part of this whole story is that,
my man is a substitute teacher, he's not even a regular teacher.
The confidence that he had to just go in and
do this, this reminds me that what's that movie with that Mexican teacher?
He goes into some school in the hood and he teach them math and
he show them all his fingers.
You know what I'm talking about?
I can do math with my figures.
And he had been waiting for this moment his whole life, and now he finally got
an opportunity to show these kids what's up, was really up with the world out here.
But no, I can't do nothing but make fun of this [LAUGH].
>> Yeah, well, look, things as disastrous as they are,
I guess hey, Las Vegas fired him.
The public school system go oyee, all right,
him running as a Republican politician.
Incoming in three, two, one, >> God, point.
>> [LAUGH] No, that's right though they definitely was Shield cuz Candace Owens
and Tucker Carlson were just doing a segment.
And she was like, today we all suffer living in a woke society,
where you have to pretend like fat is beautiful, and
you have to pretend like we're just forced to do all these things.
You know what I'm saying?
So I think that something like this would fit perfectly underneath that umbrella.
>> We'll see what happened to this gentleman.
I would have loved his name, look up his background.
Cuz if it turns out, he's doing that Vegas gambling thing,
he really just needs to go back to the table, because teaching is not his forte.
