Racist Drawings Like 'You're My Favorite Monkey' Targeted at Black El
KTLAThe parents of one of the Black elementary school students targeted with heinous racist drawings are blaming it on the parents of the offending classmates, making a fairly compelling case ... the racism comes from somewhere.
The crayon drawings are shocking ... one read, "You're my favorite monkey,' and another reads, "To my favorite cotton picker." Another student was told she would get a drawing with the image of a black person hanging from a tree, with the caption, "You're my favorite slave."

UNTHINKABLE HATEThe drawings were supposedly passed out by students during Black History Month at Pepper Tree Elementary School in the Southern California town of Upland.
Parents of the children targeted are outraged, but not necessarily at the kids. They point to the parents, because what child knows these words and phrases?
KTLAThe Upland School District called the incident "racially insensitive" ... a remarkable understatement.
