A Latino dad from Saline, Michigan was asked 'Why didn't you stay in Mexico' when he detailed the racial abuse his son was facing at school.
In the middle of sharing that anecdote, white parent Tom Burtell cut him off to ask “Why didn’t you stay in Mexico?”
The crowd collectively gasped, rushing to Iraola’s defense with some parents even suggesting that Burtell leave the room, calling his comment “disgusting.” Fellow parent Wright added that Burtell’s blatantly racist question is “indicative of what our children are experiencing.” Burtell then went on to insist that “black racism” against white people is a greater threat to their children.
