Teachers all across the state had an email forwarded to them by failed teacher and political activist turned MTA President Merrie Najimy, from MTA ALANA, a group of teachers who are people of color. And it’s honestly one of the most racist, disgusting things you’ll ever read.
It started with this email from Najimy.
As part of the MTA’s commitment to racial, social and economic justice, we have supported MTA members of color in establishing local and statewide ALANA Educator networks. ALANA – the letters stand for African, Latino, Asian and Native American – welcomes educators who identify as BIPOC and seeks to help organize them, engage them in direct action, and encourage them to take on leadership roles. It is an MTA rank-and-file-led movement. The Statewide ALANA network has been very active around the issues at the intersection of COVID-19, a safe return to learning, and Black Lives Matter. ALANA Educators are deeply committed to fighting for racial, social and economic justice, as well as helping White educators develop as accomplices and co-conspirators to make our schools and our society truly become places where Black Lives Matter through policy, pedagogy, practice and curriculum. They have written the statement below – which is grounded in their personal experiences and deep pain as people of color, as educators and as unionists – to you, who are also unionists and educators.
In solidarity,
Merrie
They’re very committed to racial, social, and economic justice, they just won’t show up to work knowing full well that students of color, and kids from impoverished backgrounds will be much more negatively effected by “remote learning,” and the racial achievement gap will grow. Ya see, they wanna help black and brown kids, but they put their own selfish fear of a virus over the needs of their students. Besides that they really care.
Here’s the email from MTA ALANA.
Everything you need to know about that letter is that they started it off by writing, “dear white educators.” Imagine addressing any other race of people with that condescending, racist tone. Here’s some of the most egregious things they stated.
The repeated trauma of inexcusable and unjust acts of violence inflicted upon Black and Brown people should weigh heavily on people of all races. This generational trauma continues to unfold, affecting our daily lives and furthering the ever present pain of our people. Black and Brown people are perpetually frustrated because we never begin the healing process, nor are the perpetrators punished for murder. These heinous acts of violence are ever recurring and are on a constant loop in the media, including the recent killings of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, Rayshard Brooks and Deon Kay, and the shooting of Jacob Blake.
Jacob Blake is a rapist. I can’t emphasize that enough and I will repost what he did to that woman each and every time these pieces of shit attempt to turn the fact that he got shot into a tragedy.
They also said that the perpetrators who killed all those people are never punished for murder. Scoreboard:
Ahmaud Arbery – 3 men charged with murder
George Floyd – 4 cops charged with murder
Breonna Taylor – Wasn’t murdered, cops were shot at first, she laundered drug money from her apartment
Rayshard Brooks – 2 cops charged with murder for defending themselves from violent child sex offender who shot a taser at their face after assaulting them multiple times to avoid arrest for DUI
Deon Kay – Shot after committing a crime and running at cop with gun, had several videos of himself pointing unregistered handguns
Deon Kay was also into waving guns around and pointing them at people with no regard for anyone else's safety. Looks like he was in a gang.https://t.co/BpzcjF2qrN

Anyone who defends rapists and gang bangers should be disqualified from teaching. Anyone so ignorant of basic facts that they don’t know that almost everyone who shot these assholes has been strung up by a BLM lynch mob should be disqualified from teaching.
As we start the new school year, we want more White people to be aware of how we, as educators of color, feel. Pay attention to the pain, fear, anger and trauma we shoulder.
Fuck off with your meaningless feelings. You live in the freest country in the world and you get taxpayer funded healthcare and a comfortable middle class feeling. You do not should any pain, fear, anger, or trauma. You’re just a whiny cunt looking to victimize yourself upon injustices of the past. You also do NOT speak for all black and brown educators.
Students of color, no matter how old, have these same feelings as well.
No they don’t. And if they do it’s up to the adults to tell them that these fears are unfounded.
Keep in mind that our students cannot escape the reality of disproportionate aggression and penal injustices as evidenced by the published images of the murders of people who look just like them at the hands of White people.
White people do not going around killing black people for fun. Most black people are killed by other black people, and the number of white people killed by black people far outnumbers black people killed by white people, despite white people being a much larger percentage of the population. Stop teaching black people to be victims and they won’t be.
One such immediate action is to acknowledge the existence of systemic and institutional racism, including how it is deeply embedded in the foundation of public education.
There is no such thing as systemic racism. If there is then it’s the fault of democrats since they control the systems where most people of color live. Systemic racism, if it were real, would be a racist like Monica Cannon-Grant rising to power because of the color of her skin.
Our curriculum, dress codes, behavior policies, teaching strategies, and family engagement policies are all rooted in White, Eurocentric ideals. Some schools and districts have begun to look at these policies and practices in an effort to make them more inclusive, but there is so much left to be done. Step outside of your comfort zone. Self-reflect, talk with your students, and resist remaining silently complicit when you witness members of your school community say or do unjust things.
These people are so racist and they don’t even see it. The dress code is racist? They’re saying that black people are incapable of dressing appropriately because they all wanna dress like extras in a 90’s hip hop video.
Behavior policies? It’s pretty simple – respect the teacher and follow school rules. If your “culture” doesn’t value that then it’s not up to teachers to alter the rules for you. And once again, the fact that they assume black and brown kids can’t behave is also extremely racist.
We are especially responsible for teaching a more inclusive curriculum that acknowledges the contributions and greatness of Black and Brown people and how they have shaped this country. Despite the prominent limitations of our state curriculum, we know that Black and Brown people are more than the history of slavery, oppression or civil rights activism.
We already do that. But unfortunately due to the former existence of slavery and Jim Crow a lot of the major historical figures who happen to be black are centered around themes of slavery and civil rights. If any of the founding fathers were black they’d be mentioned too.
The letter wasn’t signed by anyone in particular, but in this video Merrie Najimy introduces Northampton teacher Tom Chang as the ALANA representative at the 45:50 mark. You gotta hear this asshole.
This is the spokesperson for the “members of color” in the MTA.
Long story short he doesn’t want schools to reopen because then he’d have to wake up earlier and commie cold is a racist virus. As you can see, he is clearly a white male, telling other white teachers that they are racist if they don’t support a rapist like Jacob Blake. And on their Facebook page they constantly lecture teachers about how to use their privilege, tell them to read “White Fragility,” protest the police, spreads anti-cop propaganda about cops killing black children for no reason, urges racial discrimination to help black students, and advocates the removal of cops from public schools despite two years ago bringing in a Springfield cop to talk about the importance of policing in schools (this was before cops were bad in June of 2020).
Fuck each and every one of these race baiting assholes. I’ve had over a dozen teachers reach out to me with this email in disgust. The silent majority of teachers are disgusted with the actions of their union under the leadership of Merrie Najimy. Her racist actions continue to cause divide in the community, teaches students of color that they have no shot in life, and continues to offer support for a man who digitally raped a black woman and said his fingers smelt like other men afterwards. She should resign immediately, or else we might have to protest her racism at the next MTA event.

Being born and being white is bothersome to some folks,it’s ashame that people like this have a platform to spew their shit.
…find Merrie difficult to fap to?
The letter ends with, “In Solidarity”. There are many Communist organizations (orgs) that use “In Solidarity” when communicating and organizing with each other. One of those orgs is ANTIFA. Who are an extremely violent, political action organization with the intention of replacing Democracy with Communism. So ALANA is going to brainwash American children into accepting Communist rhetoric. Antifa is enslaving black people by taking advantage of them by hiding behind the BLM veil of victimhood. The Antifa/Commies are monsters and the psyop they’re conducting needs to be stopped.
Unions love ending their correspondence with this. It should read “In Solidarity, As Long as Your Dues Are Current” since we all know none of the unions will do much of anything on behalf of a member whom opts out.
Public sector unions are the devil. Prove me incorrect.
Depends which one. MTA definitely is.
Holy fuck Merrie Najimy is a scary looking woman
I am Saxon, Celtic, and probably a little Hispanic. That makes me an Asian Hispanic since my peeps originated on the steppes of Asia. I am not white!
Absolute lunacy. This letter is racist and any teacher bending a knee to the BLM lexicon created by narcissistic racist $$ fools is fueling the fire that will burn them in the end. White people are now entirely judged for being white. Because we deserve it, right? That’s true civil rights, civil freedom. Any good human is not racist, and this loon lady is clearly racist and wants power. You do not condemn a race , to liberate another. Stop judging the white race! Hypocritical fools! “White educators,” “white fragility.” What the fuck is this crap? They say it, write it, and then the sane and just question the meaning, and are silenced. Any moral person cannot stomach this. I hope this lady’s brain cells completely fry out and she starts rocking back and forth with these BLM chants slurring out of her. This is absolutely propaganda brainwash BULLSHIT. Get out of the schools- get the fuck away from our children!
Now tell us exactly what curriculum should be used in classes. Are there specific text books you are referring to? Are there particular lessons plans that cater more towards every race?
This is the whole problem with BLM, what do you want? Everyone knows that black lives matter, but what exactly so you want and how do we do it. I am happy to help, but i think most people like me need actual tangible recommendations of things we can do.
I think BLM had everyone attention, I stress had. I think a critical point in time is approaching where BLM will lose everyone’s attention because of the non stop protests and violence.
Tell us what you want and provide ways to provide it, if it is logical many people will provide including me. But don’t just tell me I should feel guilty for being white and then give me no way to fix it.
I believe you answered your own question: What does BLM want?
Violence and protests.
To be above everyone. To rule without offering any effort or justification.
In a word: Everything. Even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff.
Wow, “Merry” is actually a woman?!? I just assumed that was one of them transtesticles.
Merrie – If you’re reading this, go fuck yourself. If you’re not reading this, still go fuck youself.
Years ago, people of mixed race who could pass for white, did so. Today we shout our 1/1000th Native American pedigrees from the rooftops to land plum Affirmative Action jobs. So what’s this white privilege I hear so much about?
the nation’s police officers walked off the job today, it would be hard to blame them. Sunday’s anti-cop riots in Lancaster, Penn., have made the current de facto rules of engagement clear: Officers may never defend themselves against lethal force if their attacker is a minority. They should simply accept being shot or stabbed as penance for their alleged racism.
FCK these filthy monkies.
Bring on the civil war now
Wonder if Merrie strokes seaver st. silverbacks.
Did anyone notice the adoption of these particular words, “as helping White educators develop as accomplices and co-conspirators”? Normalizing and elevating the words ‘accomplices’ and ‘co-conspirators’? The old-speak word was collaborate.
Control the language; control the argument.
They always sound like stock Soviet characters from a Cold War action flick.
My father was a Civil Servant and worked two part time jobs to put his 3 kids through 4 years of college, and my mother worked outside the house once we were all past 6th grade. I don’t remember anybody sticking free money in their hands, or giving any of us a break on tuition.
Hear ya. The first time I heard about my “privilege”, was from a guest-speaker in an 8:00am college Econ summer class. It didn’t sit too well with me as I had spent the night shift emptying bed pans at our local hospital to pay my rent.
No free tuition for yo csuse you aint black 9h and no free obama phone and oh no you csnt gdt on the police or fire with a 50 test score because you aint black
Merrie you fat ugly four eyed cunt
I bet your snatch smells like the Chelsea creek on a hot summer day
Go suck a black dick you douchebag
Jeez TB, Where did you find this creature ‘merrie’? It’s definitely a communist Jew leftie -SJW- teacher. But is it a male? Female? I think some of the ugliest hags or unknown spieces have been featured lately…do they all roam massachusetts?
Ugh I’m so sick of the utter NONSENSE!!! I am BROWN born in Puerto Rico, had to take ESL as a little kid. I speak fluent English with no accent (and still speak Spanish). I am GLAD to be here (and as much as other PRs hate to admit it…I am a proud American lol all PRs are American and if they deny it it’s bc they are racist and hate white ppl). No opportunity has ever been blocked from me for being Brown-ever! I support the police and I will happily be voting for Trump again!!! All this nonsense about racism taking away opportunities is a delusion-other. Hispanics get angry at me for saying it-even when they have master’s degrees and big, fancy houses and a huge income (which I don’t have) should be proof that their belief is wrong (how’d you get that masters degree??? Anybody stopped you from getting rich????). So if any White person starts to question whether they real do have privilege, no, you don’t-don’t worry about it on my behalf. My husband is White and we both know we are neither privileged nor oppressed. Our life is the result of our choices…
I too am Hispanic, and sick of all the far left-wing bullshit. I currently serve this country on active duty military, and I have zero problems with anyone because of their race, ethnicity, gender, etc…
Unfortunately you are in the wrong place trying to voice your discern. Notice a members name on here as “Spic Tormentor”? Most of the people on here don’t give a crap what you think, unless you’re Anglo-Saxon, purebred white, and part of the “superior race”.
Get a life. ST name and some of his posts are obviously satire. Anyone with any sense of humor would have picked up on that.
You will never be accepted by white people
And who cares if you speak Spanish you fucking spic
My name is satire…
Don’t listen to good luck, majority of us here welcome everyone’s opinion and congrats on your success here.
Thank you for being here to contribute to this country. I wish some of my natural born brethren were of your attitude. I work/worked with guys from PR. One guy escaped there due to his former occupation and the threats he had to endure. Nicest guy in the world and so glad when he got his family over here too. One other guy, shocked my so called tolerant coworkers when he walked in wearing a MAGA hat. He was like you, brown, but not supposed to be wearing that hat. Tolerance for him went out the window that day.
if MLK was around now, as a republican and all about actual civil rights, the twitter mob would call him a race traitor and uncle tom. This is based on how twitter SJW’s treated people like Diamond and Silk, Candace Owen, etc.
check out the podcast from a week or two ago with Ben Shapiro and Candace. It is bad fucking ass. Total smack in the face of the left because the left thinks they own the black people. The left is fucking disgusting.
I love your blog Unc, but damn – I’m missing the Flat brimmed Bulls hat wearing, Henny drinking, bathroom selfie taking, law-breaking ratchets I’ve come to know and abhor!
I agree. More skanky hos, please.
No one with a child will want their kids around these screwballs Pretty soon private school will be the norm, and the racist teachers will be unemployable due to their extreme views. I hate reverse racists.
If there was a single public official in Massachusetts with any balls, there would be mass firings/layoffs of punk ass coward teachers, administrators, and the only ones being defunded would be the gutless union hacks.
But, it’s Massachusetts, so….
Neanderthal Lives Matter!
Fuck your cities, metal and agriculture!
We killed bigger animals and ate them
Anyone that has to march around holding a “I’m better than you” sign is a true racist! BLM is a prime example. I bet most of these people couldn’t even trace their roots back 400 years to justify what they are even fighting for. Uprooting, and forcing someone into slavery was, is and always will be a tragedy. But I guess all the lives lost during the Civil War have been erased from history. A war fought by both black and white men and women to defeat slavery and make all lives equal. What I am interpreting with the chaos of today is now the tables are being turned on the “whites”. Looking at today we now have out own public education “forcing” (BLM) racist beliefs onto our own children.
Here is a fucking wake up call to all who are responsible.
Teach history as it was played out, as it is factual and stop your attempts at erasing or rewriting it!!!
So let me get this straight… institutional racism is this major problem to these whacked out leftist idiots.
Hollywood, media, news, many large cities, education are all left wing operations. So if the racism is so institutional and the democrats are in charge of many of these institutions, then THE DEMOCRATS ARE THE RACIST ONES.
• Black males age 18-35 years of age are only 1.8% of the U.S. population, yet have committed 52% of homicides from 1980-2008. Black males (all ages) are only 6% of the U.S. population, yet commit 46% of all violent crimes, and 50% of the gun homicides. If Blacks were removed from the equation, the U.S. gun homicide rate would be equal to Great Britain’s, who have some of the most restrictive gun control laws in the world.
• The Black homicide rate is 17 per 100,000, a rate over 9x that of the White rate, and comparable to some of those most murderous countries in the world. If the homicide rate for the U.S. were the White-only rate, the homicide rate would drop 84%, making the U.S. rate comparable to European countries.
• According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics 2018 survey of criminal victimization, there were 593,598 interracial violent victimizations (excluding homicide) between Blacks and Whites last year, including White-on-Black and Black-on-White attacks. Blacks committed 537,204 of those interracial felonies, or 90 percent, and Whites committed 56,394 of them, or less than 10 percent.
• Blacks constitute 13% of the U.S. population, but represent 27% of all criminal activity in the U.S.
• According to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting for 2018, of the homicide victims for whom race was known, 53.3% were Black, 43.8% were White and 2.8% were of other races. In cases where the race of the offender was known, 54.9% were Black, 42.4% were White, and 2.7% were of other races.
• Of the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving Blacks and Whites, Blacks commit 85 percent and Whites commit 15 percent. This means that a Black is 27 times more likely to attack a White person than vice versa.
• For each one standard deviation increase in proportion of Black population, firearm homicide rate is increased by 82.8%. Therefore, the U.S. has a Black problem, not a gun or violent crime problem. When Blacks commit crimes of violence, they are nearly three times more likely than non-Blacks to use a gun, and more than twice as likely to use a knife.
• 40% of gun crime occurs in just three cities: 596 (10%) – St Louis, MO, 53 (11%) – Detroit, MI, and 1,527 (27%) – Chicago, IL.
• Murder is the leading cause of death for Black men, ages 15 to 34. Their murderers are other Black men 93 percent of the time.
• Black males between 16-35 years of age are only 2.0% of the population, yet commit 72% of the street crime in America.
• The single best indicator of violent crime levels in an area is the percentage of the population that is Black.
• If New York City were all White, the murder rate would drop by 91 percent, the robbery rate by 81 percent, and the shootings rate by 97 percent. In an all-White Chicago, murder would decline 90 percent, rape by 81 percent, and robbery by 90 percent.
• Every year, approximately 6,000 blacks are murdered. This is a number greater than white and Hispanic homicide victims combined, even though blacks are only 12 percent of the national population. Blacks of all ages are killed at six times the rate of whites and Hispanics combined. That black death-by-homicide rate is a function of the black crime rate. The national rate of homicides committed by blacks is eight times that of whites and Hispanics combined. Black males between the ages of 14 and 17 commit homicide at 10 times the rate of white and Hispanic male teens combined.
Very well put together statistical data. The only problem is that the left doesn’t care about the stats or facts, unless it fits their narrative. So they will continue to force “systemic racism” down our gullets until they get into the White House again, then magically it will disappear.
The statistics may be technically correct but they fail to account for third, causal factors. It’s not a “Black” problem—why are Nigerians and Jamaicans as successful as they are? No, the problem is that America’s Blacks were targeted and isolated by Marxists, who foisted the welfare state upon them just when they were about to ascend into the middle class. The Commies needed an army, and they’re activating them now.
An all white Chicago?! I don’t want that, because then what the fuck would I do, besides play with myself?
85-15%
More like 6-1 no? So, 6X more likely?
“Of the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving Blacks and Whites, Blacks commit 85 percent and Whites commit 15 percent. This means that a Black is 27 times more likely to attack a White person than vice versa.”
Sounds like this is probably taking into account each group’s portion of the total population.
That aside, really good information and solid rebuttal evidence for anyone willing to listen.
That really tells a lot about white women, the porn industry and white cuckold men. Most white women i have been with have been with black men. You can’t visit the front page of pornhub or xhamster without being bombarded with bmwf material even if you set your parameters to block interracial. White cucks are highly active on reddit actively seeking out black men to fuck their white wives. Many sub reddits devoted to it. The age old saying “once you go black aint no going back” is obviously a misnomer, however you don’t trust or put a ring on one of them either.
Do not push your fucking agenda on my child!
At least 53 primates were shot, 10 of them fatally, this weekend across Chicago, including one deadly shooting at a party in the South Austin neighborhood and another on a porch in Englewood.
A monkey also was stabbed to death late Sunday night in Greater Grand Crossing.
Chicago Police Supt. David Brown said officers made 52 gun-related arrests over the weekend, and seized 87 firearms.BLM said dis be racist So far this year, CPD has recovered 7,470 guns, according to Brown.
Brown said police also made 59 violent crime arrests over the weekend. Blm plans a major chimpout because blacks are being arrested for comitting crimes and dat be racist.
Once agsin abysmal numbers snd was hoping to see atthe bare minimum a sustsined 20% kill rate. On a good note thats 10 less biden votes. Oh wait the dead still vote in Chicago and they wear masks because of the smell.
53 shootins’ ain’t jack shit, you stoopit mutha fucka. Only 10 got wasted, you dumb-ass white cracka. Keep my city name ouch ya mutha fuckin’ mouff.
7500 handguns confiscated from criminals in gun control Chicago? holy fucking shit what is going on there other than rampant gun crime.
Too many communist Jew “teachers” they’re sick fucks and America loves them. You lost this battle while America lost in Vietnam a little late to cry now.
Settle For Biden.”
Defund the police
Take away 2nd amendment
Steal everything from whitey
That’s a new mantra from Democrats who just aren’t jazzed about the 77-year-old Democratic presidential candidate.
Biden doesn’t even make the inauguration.
You shittin’ me? AOC and the rest of the “poon squad” are gonna kill his old, white ass once theyre done with it.
They’re just using him to get to the Oval… you’re fuckin A right they are.
Wake the fuck up, America.
Thats why Cum Allah Harris stated today when the Harris administration gets going.
Here’s a suggestion Turtleboy, at the next meeting of the MTA, ask them why so many people of color immigrate to the U.S.? Don’t they know we be Reeeeeeecist? When they say that those people have no other place to go because we destroyed their own countries, then counter with how come few people immigrated to the good ole Soviet Union back in the day or immigrating to China, Vietnam, The Koreas or Japan?
After seeing who’s running these schools, committees and how fucked up and anti white anti American all of these teachers are I don’t want schools to reopen either.
Imagine being a parent these days and sending your kids to be educated everyday by these stupid fucking assholes? The kids are better off at home.
Obama was President for 8 years, National election. Clarence Thomas Supreme Court Justice , Colin Powell Chairman of Joint Chiefs , Denzel Washington Very Popular Celebrity. Enough already there are many Black Americans in power and respected. There are shit people of all races that do horrible things. Stop blaming everyone else and focus on what they do to get killed. They also pay no attention to the young Black men shot or killed in City’s every week. Grow up Liberal Pussys. P.S. Cam Newton didn’t kneel for the National Anthem.
Dear Negroids.
Please marry your baby mamas, support your chitlins, quit killing each other and looting, put down the pipe and bottle and pull up your pants. If you do all this, I’ll plant mo’ cotton and you can have a job like the good ole days. I promise.
A Priveliged White Male
I haven’t seen ALANA used since my UMass days! There was a big scandal because a bunch of white students got placed in the no whites allowed dorms and the ALANA students felt unsafe. Fortunately it was resolved but those couple of weeks of race mixing were a real blight on the whole diversity effort.
Im getting a semi
Their token POC is whiter than I am, and my ancestors were all French or English. These lunatics are so goddamn racist that they’re forcing the concept that all people of “color” are impoverished, dumb, helpless victims that NEED these brave saviors to rescue them. It doesn’t get much more delusionally racist than that. In what decade did college yuppies become so racist that this is the new status quo? It mutated out of control.
Spending all day talking about how shitty you think all black peoples lives are certainly seems racist
Weez got rid of the whippin post. Next youall will all want to come to the big house.
If where such a racist country, How did Obama Serve 2 Terms??
Why would Joe Biden pick a Black women to be his Vice president??
Logic would tell you this is all based on total Bull shit!
Ask blm, asians are all racist. They are quiet, and do well in school. This has Jack shit to do with inequality! It’s all about power over the state money. Money MUST be put into the education system. Fuck the MTA. How much did they give McGovern this year?
I was sent this email. I was also subjected to “multicultural training” where they praised BLM. I had to listen to the author of White Fragility tell me how racist I am because I’m white. My school is on board except me. I wrote an email to our Union president asking what my rights were as far as having to listen to that happy horse shit. He never got back to me and I don’t think he will.
Fascinating
Look how fucking smug they all look. Love to listen to themselves talk. Tom is part Chinaman, but, yes, he is not a person of color.
