Norfolk, Virginia. A female Booker T. Washington High School official is in hot water after retweeting a photo with the caption, “every white girl’s father’s worse [sic] nightmare or not.”
The photo depicts a row of white girls, who appear to be dressed in prom gowns, accompanied by black male dates.
The tweet prompted a group of African-American students to walk out of class on Monday in protest of the school official’s tweet.
According to WVEC, the Twitter post was made in June by the school administrator, but students only recently noticed it.in The tweet was a reposting of a message from an account called @OrNahhTweets. It showed a photograph of seven white girls in prom-style dresses with seven African-American young men in tuxedos. h/t rawstory
