Serious question

Even though this has racial connotation, it is in no way a remark about race.


I was wondering, has anyone ever had a black male teacher? I don't ever remember In any of my schools there ever being a black male teacher. I was wondering if this is just something i experienced in my life or if there actually is a very limited amount of black male teachers in the world?

Only black teacher I remember was back in grade 6 or 7 i think, and she wasnt really a teacher, she was taking care of one of the handicapped kids.

Here you have to send your picture with your resume to teach. The only reason they do this is because they won't hire a black guy, Indian guy, middle eastern guy regardless of their qualifications. They will take a honky with Downs syndrome before a black guy with a PhD.

I like this. It keeps the black mamba away from wrecking local teachers/co workers hairy yīnh�'s before I get the chance to.

I've had quite a few black teachers. Mostly at the University level though. In high school 2 coaches. One was arrested for rape last year.

Yes... though it was quite rare. Both male and female.

One of the most remarkable professors I've ever had was an African Indian (father from Mozambique, mother from Goa), who taught political science.

I was very embarrassed on the first day because this old pale guy behind me kept poking me and, when I turned around, he asked "is that nigga the teacher?". The professor heard his question, and before I could say anything, he answered politely "yes, I'm in charge of this class" - though not without me staring at him incredulous, wondering how the hell he was able to keep his cool.

The guy was an admirable human being. On a side note, he spoke a language with clicks as his mother tongue, though I can't remember which it was

Dunno

One of my classes was taught a few times by a black PhD student (the "TA") while the professor was away at a conference. He wasn't the actual professor, but maybe this counts...?

Either you slanging crack rock or you got a wicked jump shot.

One of my drumming teachers was black. He was from Trinidad, and taught me how to play the congas. He had white hair and a beard and he had moles in his face, and he kept talking all the time so it was like being narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Posted by OrangestO on Sep-15-2012 15:01:

I've had a few at the college level. None before that except a gym teacher in high school.

My best friend is black and will be teaching after he graduates. Perfect job for him, too.

Some people are made for it. They have the mind and personality to teach. He has "it."

There's nothing like a boring teacher who doesn't care about his or her job. Whether black, white, etc. It shows in the grades and the way the class operates.

Good teachers are a rarity these days. With budget cuts, class sizes and curriculums geared toward testing, people who would otherwise be great teachers have strayed away from it.

Never thought of it but you're right. I once had a black gym teacher. Does that count? I wonder where they find teachers for schools in Africa? I'm guessing they have to import them.

I don't mean to be a dickhead but I had 4.

i took 1 class in accounting in college and the professor was a black guy

Biology teacher in High School. He was a remarkable man; well-spoken, helpful and had the most charming demeanor. He was well-liked by all the students.
I can't think of any other black teachers I had.

I also love being educated by Neil deGrasse Tyson, albeit indirectly. He must easily be the most awesome black man on Earth.

My orchestra conductor for all three years of middle school. He was one of the best teachers I've had.


Posted by Acton on Sep-15-2012 21:09:

From primary school teachers, through to doctors and professors at my university, I've not once had a teacher/lecturer/tutor who was 'black'...... and I've never really thought about it until now.

Hmmm.... quite strange really.


Posted by Dj Skez on Sep-15-2012 21:39:

I had 3 male black teachers at Lehman High school in the Bronx, 1 at Westchester community college Valhalla, N.Y and one at Pace University. Only one really stood out as being above average and that was at W.C.C. I don't think black males have the time and patience to deal with annoying students, their hands are full with Sheniqua at home.

While being right to a certain extent, where did you think most Cubans came from and what drum did the conga copy/emulate?

Try and do this without google super sleuth.
