Add an Ivy League professor to the group of reprehensible people willing to hurl insults a group of children that have already been shown to be innocent.
Professor Ebony Elizabeth Thomas is an associate at the University of Pennsylvania and is one more person willing to make assumptions based on fake news.
She declared that “Whiteness endlessly forgives its own transgressions,” after passing judgement on the teens of Covington Catholic High School.
Yet that was just the tip of her racially charged tirade.
Thomas claims that the “smiling face of Whiteness” is an entity that “always hides a knife behind its back.”
Her frightening reference continued, stating “That knife says the: ‘You must forgive us. You must educate us. Or else.’”
“Usually, that ‘or else’ happens anyway,” she added. “But is will assuredly happen unless you kiss Whiteness’ ring.”
Thomas offered all this through Twitter shortly after the initial video aired, the one that depicted the students as the villains.
However, now that it has come to light that the boys were actually accosted by the Native American man, Nathan Phillips, Thomas has yet to say anything to refute her earlier comments.
Thomas is clearly just one of the many that were waiting for the slightest excuse to air out their own racist views.

I think “accosted” isn’t the right word. Mr. Phillips was singing and chanting in a respectful manner.
The child’s parents want $250 million for what? Being misunderstood?!
