Don't turn it into something Racial. Color has absolutely nothing to do with it.

It absolutely is racial, for many people. It's silly to pretend it's not.

Keeping this somewhat "on topic" (i.e., locally relevant), check out the listing of every area school district's plans with regard to showing the speech. The reasons some of these districts give are, well, interesting. I heartily applaud Cy-Fair ISD for being one of the few with their act together. I'm surprised at the "hands-off" approach of HISD, though.

pleasesaythe4th and houston-nomad are spot on (history has already shown), I also think it's kind of lame for a mod to jump in and try to censor someone's opinion lmao

I've asked that this be kept on track. Some people can't or won't listen.
