Dr. Craig Witherspoon left the county

better financially than others per the auditor. He would have done some good things but the powers that be couldn't take him not only being a black man but a smart black man.

I welcome the new superintendent and was there last night to welcome him.

How ignant to say is Edgecombe County ready for a white superintendent because all of them have been white except Dr. Witherspoon.

And obviously you are not informed because it has been whites who have ran all of those who left away however some of them went out with some issues. Not going there but I am very much informed.

I supported that past superintendent who was white but later found out he had some issues. However he did do some good things in his short stay and some white folks have not gotten over it yet so they are trying to get their Charter School up and rolling but the timing is not looking good for them.

Oh well it ain't the black folks who are running the system because many of them are afraid to speak out but the white movement have no problem with coming to meetings and taking a stand. Oh well informed have the meetings on video.

Don't worry, Dancin' Curl

Don't worry, Dancin' Curl will be along shortly.

Love those racist who

hide behind code names. That make them what? You guessed it only 3 letters.

Not sure where you find

Not sure where you find racism in my statement. I don't care who holds what position anywhere as long as the job gets done fairly and without incidents.

Posted my comment before

OK

OK

Is Edgecombe County ready for

Is Edgecombe County ready for a white superintendent ? Every move he makes will be scruntinized simply because of skin color. To some of the less informed only witherspoon was capable of serving as superintendent.
