Pupil Prejudice: Ohio Student Banned From Prom Over Racist A$$ Promposal Sign 

Source: Hill Street Studios / Getty Student Banned From Prom Over Racist Sign Promposals have become the most anticipated part of prom season, aside from the outfits — but some people just take things too far. An Ohio student has been banned from attending prom after his school district claimed his promposal sign used racist language. The sign read, “If I Was Black, I’d Be Picking Cotton. But I’m White, So I’m Picking You For Prom.” Janice Wyckoff, the superintendent at Clear Fork Valley Local Schools, told reporters: “To be frank with you I thought, ‘Oh my goodness; this is awful. Kids need to understand, when you’re celebrating things it doesn’t give you a pass on using inappropriate racial slurs. I don’t believe that this is any group think on the part of the student body. This is one person making a bad decision that’s going to reflect on everybody. This is actually a terrible day in the Clear Fork Valley.” The student has not been identified, and Wyckoff doesn’t know if the student is a junior or senior. She added that the student is remorseful, has deleted the social media post and learned the power of his words. Mmmhmm.

Precautions: Pennsylvania Woman Creates ‘Not Reaching’ Pouch To Save Black Folks Who Get Pulled Over By Police 

Source: WOLFRAM KASTL / Getty Woman Creates ‘Not Reaching’ Pouch For Black People Who Get Pulled Over By Police Unfortunately, we live in a time where you have to be extra careful living your daily life as a person of color — specifically a Black person. Pennsylvania mom Jackie Carter is on a mission to save Black lives by any means necessary, so she created the “Not Reaching” pouch; a small, clear identification pouch that can be attached to the driver’s side air vent of the vehicle. Woman Develops 'Not Reaching' Pouch to Save Black Lives During Traffic Stops. #PhilandoCastile https://t.co/a73CUJPOyu — Shomari Stone (@shomaristone) April 30, 2019 Three years ago when she first thought of the protective pouch, Carter was at home in Pennsylvania celebrating her son’s 30th birthday when she heard the news that 32-year-old Philando Castile, had been shot and killed by a police officer. She says she thought to herself that someone “has got to come up with a solution”, so she created the pouch, hoping would keep young men from reaching around their cars while looking for license and registration documents and setting off potentially dangerous interactions with the police. Carter told NBC News : “I’m more fearful [for my son] in a car here than [when he’s serving] in Afghanistan.” Meanwhile, a Washington, DC police officer noted: “Anything that you can’t see throws you into that red flag or heightened mode. But it should never lead you to just assume that they’re trying to kill you.” The pouch has sold more than 1,000 units since it launched three years ago, and Carter says she has given the product away to many drivers in her community. If we don’t look out for each other, than no one will. Thanks, Ms. Carter.
