Convinced traditional discipline is racist because blacks are suspended at higher rates than whites, New York City’s Department of Education has in all but the most serious and dangerous offenses replaced out-of-school suspensions with a touchy-feely alternative punishment called “restorative justice,” which isn’t really punishment at all. It’s therapy.

Students who bully classmates can no longer be removed from classrooms except for the worst offenses, and only then with the consent of a district supervisor.

In Syracuse, meanwhile, teachers complain student behavior has worsened since the school district collapsed discipline structures in favor of restorative justice practices.

According to a recent teachers union survey, 65 percent of Santa Ana educators said the softer discipline system is not working. Dozens of teachers have filed hostile-work-environment complaints.

Just weeks after “empowering teenagers,” San Diego public schools witnessed a surge in violent assaults.

Thanks to talking circles and peer juries, “young people are now taking control of the environment,” Education Secretary Arne Duncan gushed in a 2014 speech to black students at Howard University.

After spending millions on restorative justice and “courageous conversations about race” training, Portland public schools have seen their students only grow more violent.

Feelings trump facts, and good intentions trump bad results, in the world of social justice.

But wait, we didn’t get to the best part! ^_^

After a black high-school boy repeatedly punched his teacher in the face, sending her to the emergency room, the teacher, who is white, was advised by the assistant principal not to press charges. The administrator lectured her about how hard it is for young black men to overcome a criminal record.

Worse, she was told she should examine what role she, “as a white woman” holding unconscious racial biases, played in the attack, according to the Willamette (Oregon) Week.

A white sixth-grade teacher at a mostly black Washington, DC, school told the US Commission on Civil Rights she had similar “conversations” in which she was told that the bad behavior of black boys is mainly the teacher’s fault. “I have been encouraged to examine and question how my own racial dispositions affect my teaching and my students,” Andrea Smith testified.

I emphasized the important part.

But we still haven’t gotten to the most important part of all:

During cultural sensitivity training required of school districts under restorative justice programs, teachers are told they are largely to blame for bad behavior of black students because they “misinterpret” African-American culture.

Yes that’s right.  When a black kid savagely attacks a teacher, the blame lies with the teacher for being white.

Critical theory in action.

Critical theory begets social justice.

Social justice is leftism.

This isn’t even getting into the PEG and how it receives taxpayer money to lecture teachers about how they need to let black students chimp out freely and behave like stereotypes, because trying to make a black kid not be a stereotype is racist.

White teachers are taught to check their “unconscious racial bias” when dealing with black students who act out. They’re told to open their eyes to “white privilege” and white cultural “dominance,” and have more empathy for black kids who may be lashing out in frustration. They are trained to identify “root causes” of black anger, such as America’s legacy of racism.

Literally something you could hear a frothing hysterical tumblr social justice kid say, except this is being said by a group that has power over America’s education system, paid for by American tax dollars, and supported by the Obama administration.  Which means President Obama, the person, is directly responsible for making black kids more violent and hateful, and ruining black people’s lives.

And when crime in black neighborhoods skyrockets (some more), the media will cover up Obama’s responsibility.
