White Parent Used N-Word During Texas School Board Meeting

During the “citizens comments” portion of Leander Independent School District Thursday’s board meeting, a white parent used the n-word.

Apparently, the parent, who was identified as “speaker seven, Sheryl,” addressed the crowd about N.W.A.’s 1988 record “F*** the Police,” which she says is included in the English III curriculum.

“Officers—I hope they’re in here listening—and by the way, we appreciate you. The same hypocrites sitting in front of us that hate you, still call you when they feel threatened. You cannot make this stuff up. And, of course, we are seeing the hypocrisy of the left all around the country.”

Sheryl was upset over what she feels is hypocrisy and accused the board of wanting to defend the police while also requesting officers’ presence at the meeting, Complex reported.

The parent claims that the lyrics of “F*** the Police” were in the student learning resource portal and have remained despite the multiple complaints received from community members.

“We have the f-word 59, we have the n-word eight to nine times,” the woman said before reciting the following lyrics from Ice Cube’s verse.

“This is in your curriculum,” she said after the uncomfortable moment. “How do you defend that? Are you proud? Your curriculum. This is what you’re teaching our kids. It’s sick.”

The conflict came during the spring semester after parents said the district included the song in the list of approved resources for teachers. A post on the TEACH Parental Rights Coalition Facebook page lists one of the suggested resources as a Vox article about “History of American Protest Music.”

Some parents wanted others to participate in the #LISDsickday protest on April 28 by keeping children from attending class.

“On the song list is NWA’s ‘F*ck Tha Police,’” the post read. “This is *not* appropriate for the classroom. What are the curriculum developers thinking? There are dozens of more examples just like this. Many teachers are asking for parents to speak up, as they don’t feel safe doing so. They don’t want to teach this to your kids and they need your help.”
