Michelle Obama’s brother and his wife filed a lawsuit alleging racial bias at a Milwaukee private school, saying that when they raised concerns, the school retaliated by expelling their sons.
Craig and Kelly Robinson said on Good Morning America Tuesday that their two sons were expelled from University School Milwaukee after the parents conveyed their concerns about alleged bias and mistreatment of students of color.
In a public letter to the USM community, the Robinsons said they noticed the problems when they helped their sons during pandemic virtual schooling.
“We were surprised and troubled by the repeated use of racial and ethnic stereotypes in certain assignments. We also witnessed a disregard for children who were not physically present in class and an apparent insensitivity to socio-economic status — an issue that was put in stark relief during the pandemic,” the Robinsons wrote.
In their letter, the Robinsons said they raised their issues “through the appropriate channels” and were “stunned and deeply disappointed when the school reacted with “sharp resistance and hostility.”
They said their sons were summarily dismissed from the school with no notice, no chance to appeal and no credible explanation for why USM would take “such Draconian action.”
USM Head of School Steve Hancock said in a letter to families with students in the school that the students were expelled not because racial bias issues were raised, but because the Robinsons violated school policies in the way they communicated their concerns.
In their open letter, the Robinsons described some examples of what they describe as bias and insensitivity.
“We are aware of instances in which white students have regularly used racial epithets, such as the N-word; when brought to USM’s attention, administrators dismissed the seriousness of the behavior, noting that those using such abhorrent language on campus were ‘good kids,'” the Robinsons wrote in their letter.
They also said students of color have been subjected to “harsher disciplinary actions than their white counterparts who engaged in similar conduct.”
Hancock told Kelly Robinson in an email that she had engaged in “disrespectful and deflating” communications.
The Robinsons are suing for financial compensation but said in their letter any money they receive as a result of the lawsuit would be put toward initiatives designed to promote diversity, equity and inclusion in schools.

Wow! the wookie’s brother is married to a WHITE woman. They sure try to keep that under wraps. She must despise him. Of course barry only LOOKS black. He is half white after all.
They seem to have a thing for White women—not so much White men. But for all the agony Whites have put the Black people through, you would think that they would keep it within their ethnicity.
To Paraphrase Thos Quote, , ” Does Brock H . Obama’s Kids Suffer More ‘ Discrimination ‘ Against Them Because Of The Color Of Their Skin Than A White Virginia’s Coal Miner’s Children. ” Author Unknown
What, Barack H. Obama’s Nrother is Married To A White Raced Woman.?
Michell’s Brother Married to ” A White Race Female ,” WOMAN ,
So, how many other parents with “students of color” witnessed this same thing? Are there any others all up in arms and suing the school?
PR stunt
“The Robinsons are suing for financial compensation but said in their letter any money they receive as a result of the lawsuit would be put toward initiatives designed to promote diversity, equity and inclusion in schools.” Just have to be continually stirring the pot—ramping up hate, discontent, and divisiveness under the guise of “equity, inclusiveness, and diversity”.
I, for one, am so sick of this BS.
” to promote diversity, equity and inclusion in schools.”
“Equity” is a Democrat con, it is just another way of saying “socialism”.
Social equity takes into account systemic inequalities to ensure everyone in a community has access to the same opportunities and outcomes.
In other words, one’s desires, ambition, education, the natural endowments of a person’s talents or abilities are all irrelevant to Democrats. An uneducated street sweeper should live in the same type of house and make the same amount as brain surgeon. (as long as they are not White)
AND a dumbas a box o rocks black guy, should get the SAME test scores as a book worm studying white/asian kid,… Ya know, cause “EQUITY!! RHEE…
John F. kennedy Vs Robert F. Kennedy , ” When Civil Right Opponents Went off The Rails Was When They Justly. Demanded Equal Rights To Unjustly Demanding Equal Outcome”. ” An Example , Ben carson , M.D. , or Former Democrat President Barack H. Obama .
Yeah, like green backs in their pockets. Now that’s diversity.
Oh no! Somebody said something to a black student that the black student felt triggered. Gosh by golly, I never encountered during my young and teen years, anybody ever saying anything derogatory to me. How dare you say something to my snowflake child! Oh, by the way, there are countless rap videos, by blacks, ragging on and making fun of black people and calling them the ‘N’ word. Result? CRICKET’S.
That’s because for FAR TO long, we’ve let the LEFT dictate what is and isn’t racist.. What is and isn’t discriminatory…
Michelles Brother and Female, White Wife Were Going To ” Play The ” Civil Rights , “Race Card, ” For All It Was $$$$, Worth..
Several Years Ago there Was A Joke Told About A Long Line of People Standing In line on The Sidewalk and A Reporter Happened To Ask A Colored Woman What She Was Waiting, Standing In Line For And She Said That They Were Giving Out Free Money and The Reporter Asked She ” Who’s Money , Was It? The Colored Lady Standing In Line Said, ” Its Obama Money And She Was Going To Get Some.! Michelle’s Brother Saw How Easy it Was To ” Get Free Money( Black Lives Matter “Founders, ” ” And They Were Going To Get Some. “
Just another fake, lying accusation, trying to get a payday!

Comment to your posted Comment, ” … Trying To Get A Payday” Oh, Come On Man, ” As democrat President, Joe Biden Would Say.!
Racism is when you are black and have to be considerate of others, I guess. Being black does not give one license to be obnoxious.
TO THEM it does.
Private school? Then why don’t they send their brats to a public school where they will be taught to hate white Christian heterosexuals? Oh, I forgot, then they wouldn’t have anything to complain about.
so micheal obama aka michelle has a twin brother.
And any money the receive will go toward promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Ya, sure. Just like the Obama Foundation. I think not.
OR all of those millions the CLINTON foundation raked in, that never ever seemed to go to any actual charity…
Its A democrat Thing, ” Foundations, ” The Clinton Foundation , ” Then We Find Out That democrat Former democrat Black President, Barack H. Obama, Also Had ” A Foundation,. “
Everybody Who’s A democrat, Has A Foundation , As The Hotal Airess once Was Suspossed To Have Said, ” Only The Poor , Little People Pay. Taxes. ” Avoiding Paying So Much Out In Taxes .
