This isn't an article trashing Trump. This article is addressing the fact that our KIDS are acting out in a racist and crude manner.

Donald Trump recently captured the presidency. Regardless of the fact that I am a democrat and voted for Secretary Clinton, let me say that I am being optimistic and wish President-Elect Trump the best.

Trump's campaign was seen by many as a platform for racism and bigotry. Whether you agree with that or not is up for discussion. Whether or not President Trump will be different than Candidate Trump is to be seen. Recently, I've noticed a few incidents where kids and teens have openly been racist to fellow students and complete strangers and using Trump's name as a justification.

The kids and young adults are acting in a way that the media portrayed Trump for the longest time. Do these kids kids know what they're saying? Have parents taught them to disregard anyone that isn't white? Based on what I've seen, we need to teach our kids respect for all people. I personally am trying to look past much of Trump's campaign where he disrespected people based on their religions, race, disabilities, etc. but these kids who I am about to talk about are, at least in my opinion, showing Trump's campaign was seen as a racist campaign, even by some of his supporters.

Above is a letter to a Georgia high school teacher. Mairah Teli is a Muslim teacher who received this anonymous message in her classroom. It reads:

"Your head scarf isn't allowed anymore. Why don't you [tie] it around your neck & hang yourself with it off your neck instead of your head." - America

What normal human being is taught this is even semi okay? A teacher receiving this, while she is working to teach her student's about her religion along with whatever else she teaches in school.

At Royal Oak Middle School in Michigan, a video has surfaced of students chanting "Build that wall!" Josie Roman, a seventh grader recorded the incident saying tears were running down her face and that her friends that were Mexican-American were running to the bathroom crying. She included that this whole incident was scary and made those targeted very upset.

These racist acts shielded by a Trump presidency is not acceptable. We need to take action against such acts. You want to stop bullying in school? Stop this.
