The mother of a Lakota student said she wants the white Independence Elementary principal fired after he acknowledged that her African-American son suffered discrimination from white classmates, and that his own racial attitude led to a too-lenient punishment.
In the March 30 letter obtained Monday by The Enquirer, Principal Greg Finke apologized to Toshimi Scott and took "full responsibility" for the punishment.
Finke, in his letter, stated that he was "embarrassed" after reflecting "on my personal beliefs and attitudes toward race and race relations" and his "blatant ignorance" regarding racial discrimination.
This from the Cincinnati Enquirer.
