#NEWSYOUCANUSE: Black and Brown children are all too often subjected to racist treatment from teachers, principals, and other school staff. Just last year the police were called on a four-year-old Black child in a Waterloo school, meanwhile, a local teacher is facing charges for taping students to a desk!
