Jennifer, one of the mothers who participated in the fierce beating of a teacher from School No. 17 of Marcos Paz, spoke this Thursday with the press and explained how the violent situation was unleashed that caused the district teaching unions will announce a paro total repudiation of the aggression. “I don’t regret it because that’s a quarter of what she did to the boys’ heads.” the woman assured firmly.
She is the mother of one of the sixth grade students who had classes with the attacked teacher every Wednesday. According to his story, this week his daughter had insistently told him that she did not want to attend school. When asked the reasons, heThe minor claimed that her teacher grabbed her by the earshe insulted his colleagues and told them that they were worthless.
After listening to the girl, Jennifer sand communicated with the rest of the mothers in the classroom and told them what had happened. The same stories that the first student had told began to be replicated in all the houses, which motivated the next day a large group of mothers will approach the institution to ask to speak with the teacher.
“I want them to listen to our side, because they say that we are violent, that we hit the teacher, poor thing, pBut here 24 boys have been tortured and mistreated,” Jennifer began by saying in dialogue with TN. And he added: “My daughter told me ‘mom, the lady does this and this to us.’ He grabs us by the ear and tells us that we are useless black people, that we disgust him, that we are not going to be anyone in life.’ I asked him ‘Does that say to you?’ and she said ‘not just me, she says to all my colleagues.’ He tells all of us children. To Bautista when he is drawing and he says ‘what are you drawing, you fucking asshole, can’t you see that you’re retarded?’
Then the mother said that she wrote what happened in the group that she shares with other parents, created to organize the graduate trip. It was then that they decided to go to the establishment and rebuke her. According to Jennifer, They just wanted to talk.
“We grabbed her in the corner, we asked her if she was the sixth grade teacher.“She said she wasn’t, that she didn’t know them, that she wasn’t the teacher, that she didn’t know the kids,” he explained. When asked about how the violence broke out, she replied: “Because she said she didn’t know the kids and they shouldn’t screw her. And a mother stood in front of him and the he ran, he pushed her. So we all went and grabbed her. Beyond the violence, I want someone to ask me how the kids are doing today. Because everyone is talking to you, uh, the 24 moms who hit, look at those heads. But here, who asks about the kids?”
Videos of the attack quickly went viral on social media. And in this context, they asked Jennifer if she regretted what happened. “Repent? Am I honest with you? I don’t regret it. Do you know why? Because that’s a quarter of what she did to the boys’ heads. “To get to the point where a 10-year-old child locks himself in the bathroom to use bleach because they are saying ‘black’ things to him all his life, I think there is no more violence than that,” he said, assuring that at least 17 other teachers were aware of the situation and had done nothing. Even the director, who was also beaten.
And he added: “I believe that no title gives you the power to mistreat a creature. A child who is only 10 years old does not give you the power to tell them that they are not going to be anyone in life, even if they go to a State school. Because those women are the ones who have a position and they think that because the kid is poor they can tell him whatever they want. And it’s not like that. “My daughter is poor and I send her here because I have no other choice.”
The event occurred in the last few hours and went viral through social networks, with images in which several mothers appear who pulled the hair of the teacher, who teaches English classes at the establishment. From the numerical superiority of the group, they reduced her and threw her to the ground, with punches and kicks. The director of the institution was also attacked.
Given the episode that went viral due to its dissemination on social networks and local media, all of the unions that make up Buenos Aires Teaching Unit Front ordered a total strike for this Thursday in the municipality of Marcos Paz, in rejection of the fierce beating against the episode of violence in the institution, located in the “Our Lady of Peace” neighborhood.
