Ignorance is connected to racism due to the fact that racism seems to stem from lack of sympathy and knowledge about someone or about a group of people. https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841786787 2021-10-25 14:05:49 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841786787 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841787799 The lifespan of racism is only prolonged through the continuation of ignorance. Racism is built around the negative stereotypes that surround members of a certain ethnicity, or simply appearance. The conscious denial to accept the fact that we are not different is what connects ignorance to racism. Those who ignore the social progression are the ones who keep racism alive.]]> 2021-10-25 14:06:05 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841787799 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841789066 initally it was shocking, but then with the second incident i wasn't really surprised because of what had just happened days before. also, according to some upperclassmen and teachers, this kind of thing has happened before at west]]> 2021-10-25 14:06:25 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841789066 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841790316 I think that Sturgis should promote their zero tolerance policy more than they have in the past. I think that they should have more penalties for people who spread hate like this but I do like how they are spreading a lot of awareness to how it's not okay to do this. ]]> 2021-10-25 14:06:45 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841790316 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841791513 you cant really completely stop it but if it ever happens it can come with a consequence that would make people not want to do it again ]]> 2021-10-25 14:07:05 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841791513 When I found out about what happened at West I was incredibly surprised. My feeling were just disgusted, and angry, and my feelings have not changed since then. https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841792354 2021-10-25 14:07:17 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841792354 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841794274 students talk so they would spread the word and if the school didn't make a statement than it would make the students who it was directed towards think that they were just ignoring it. It would essentially say that it was okay because no one was getting in trouble for it and no one called attention to it.]]> 2021-10-25 14:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841794274 My reaction was disturbed because even though we don't know what they said, we know it was bad enough that certain measures were taken to address the situation. My feelings haven't changed much about west since our bias is that East is better, and this action just helps to prove our point. https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841796110 2021-10-25 14:08:13 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841796110 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841796805 we have a zero tollerance policy, so zero tollerance should be shown. whoever did it shoudl be at the very least suspended]]> 2021-10-25 14:08:24 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841796805 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841797322 I frankly wasn't surprised. Perhaps I am just desensitized to such things- I see slurs written about on main street every day, big and small. If anything, I was just more disappointed it happened in a school.]]> 2021-10-25 14:08:33 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841797322 Even if just a few people saw the graffiti, it still needs to be addressed because the things that were written can have serious affects on people, and and are just outright disgusting. https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841798442 2021-10-25 14:08:51 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841798442 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841799497 I think that ignorance is not only not paying attention to what is happening but also not caring and being mindful of how things can affect people. I think that ignorance is conected to racism because racism is not just hating a certain people but it is also just not treating them just the same as everyone else, which I think is ignorant.

]]> 2021-10-25 14:09:08 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841799497 They would make the statement because as long as 1 person saw it, word will spread and they would have to take action no matter what, along with that it was just the right thing to do in the situation. https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841800632 2021-10-25 14:09:26 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841800632 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841802481 There’s not really much action that can be taken besides publicly spreading awareness of the incident but an investigation into who did it doesn’t seem like it would show results]]> 2021-10-25 14:09:57 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841802481 https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841805749 The school wanted to ensure that the correct facts were released in a way that prevented them from being exaggerated by the few who DID see it. Rumors spread fast, and administration wanted to nip a potential problem in the bud before things got out of their control.]]> 2021-10-25 14:10:48 UTC https://padlet.com/imasil/bahntcgfl1t54lnw/wish/1841805749 The student body should find the person who did this and make them held accountable.

It is impossible to rid an entire school of ignorance, and therefore racism and homophobia will always remain.
