Maybe images are needed to see what others are exposed to for generations vs a fantasized chip on their shoulder

The private school girls - may have been a slur by one or small group
A spokesman for De La Salle High school, an all-boys school affiliated with Carondelet that runs the Black Student Union, reiterated that the group was not responsible.
"I know for a fact they have nothing to do with the menu at Carondelet," said J.A. Gray, director of communications for De La Salle, in an interview with USA TODAY Network.
According to Ditzel, a student announced the lunch menu over the school's public address system on Monday.
"It was a shock to the administrators, the students and the teachers, and they were angry about it," Ditzel said.
Ditzel said she did not hear the announcement and that it had not been approved by the administration, per school policy.
