School Board Member Faces Backlash After Claiming 'Whiteness is Evil'

Community members are condemning a Michigan school board member after she claimed that “whiteness is evil.” Parents criticized school board member Kesha Hamilton at a Jackson Board of Education meeting over her anti-white statements, including claims that “whiteness is evil” and that white people are “more dangerous” than animals.

One December 18th tweet from Hamilton read, “Whiteness is so evil. it manipulates then says, I won’t apologize for my dishonesty and trauma-inducing practices and thinks you should applaud it for being honest about its ability to manipulate and be dishonest.”

Another tweet from the school board member responded to another user and read, “The last thing you have to worry about is an animal – though that could be a very real threat.. more dangerous are any whites you may see on the trail.. be safe!”
