Cute seven year old Lamya Cammon kept playing with her beaded braids. The clicking of the braids annoyed her teacher. After a failed warning, the young girl was called to the front of the class when her teacher cut off a braid! After Lamya’s mom confronted the teacher, she apologized and said it was out of frustration.
The police charged the teacher $175 fine for disorderly conduct. Congress Elementary school will conduct a discipline hearing.
I have been blessed with great teacher, some that I am still in contact with. I have also had mean teachers who just don’t like specific students. It is a shame that we have this one teacher with so much power, who decides to be vindictive in their lessons.
Black hair is a large part of our lives. The truth is, within our American culture hair is sacred. What gives the teacher a right to cut a student’s hair? If twirling hair makes her that frustrated and destructive, what else is she doing to students behind closed doors?
I am going to pray for all parties involved.
