NAACP Condems Cook Remarks
The Charleston NAACP called for school board Vice Chairwoman Nancy Cook to apologize or resign Tuesday for suggesting that unfit parents should be sterilized.
After meeting with Cook about her controversial comment over the weekend, the group said she should enroll in sensitivity and diversity training, and urged other members of the county school board to condemn her comment.
“Ms. Cook’s remarks show an arrogant and uncaring attitude toward single parents and their children that could easily have a negative impact on the funding, staffing and equipping of their schools,” NAACP branch President Dot Scott said during a press conference.
“Her words are especially offensive in the American South, where poor women were once involuntarily sterilized and often, with prejudice, labeled as unfit mothers because of their color or economic class.”
Anyone who heard Cook’s remarks know full well that there was nothing racial about them, but the NAACP has to somehow keep itself relevant. You have to understand that they really have no legitimate purpose today, therefore they must come out to wail and cry and insenuate racial strife to even the most remote stretch they can even when it isn’t really there. They don’t want their funding to dry up, after all.
As far as the sensitivity and diversity training goes, that’s the feel good term for Marxist brainwashing.
