As Jason Rantz reports at MyNorthwest.com, a second grade teacher at Grove Elementary in Marysville posted a video to the school’s online system titled “Animation Series: Something Happened In Our Town.” The video revolved around a young white girl and young black boy’s perspectives of a white officer shooting a black man.
“When the white girl asks why police shot the man, she’s told by her sister, ‘The cops shot him because he was Black.’ The girl’s mom says it was a mistake to shoot the man, noting that, ‘It was a mistake that is part of a pattern’ where white people are treated well, but not Black people,” Rantz noted.
In the video (below), Rantz continued, the black boy’s father tells his son the officer “won’t go to jail.” The boy’s brother says, “Cops stick up for each other. And they don’t like Black men.”
