Daily Camera:
Denver schools’ menu for Martin Luther King birthday hard for some to digest
Denver Public Schools apologized Tuesday for what it called a “well-intentioned but highly insensitive” attempt to honor the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
Friday’s DPS lunch menu, headlined “In Honor Of M.L. King,” offered students “Southern Style” chicken and collard greens — a meal that some say is an offensive caricature of black culture.
In a statement issued Tuesday night and posted on the school district’s website, DPS spokesman Michael Vaughn said the meal was “highly insensitive in light of certain hurtful cultural stereotypes still harbored in parts of our society.”
Emphasis is mine, but it’s key.
oh dear oh dear. I really do feel that give it another ten years and no one will be able to live life without getting stressed to the max!
Oh thats was a nice experience to read this, interesting enough to keep the visitor entertained, thanks or sharing.
I like chicken more and more each day because it makes my life a lot easier. Awesome! I STRONGLY recommend chicken to EVERYONE interested in running a successful online business!
