Itās going to be four years of undoing the damage Cockholster did and at the end of that time theyāll still be finding new things that need undoing.
I never thought in my idealistic youth that we would be fighting these battles in 2021. My only hope is that my daughter and my grandchildren do not seem to have any of this hatred or prejudice in them - yet.

An online livestream video depicted Black children at Roswell day care waiting to be fed as white children had already received their meals. The incident was reported by a family who saw the footage while checking on their 2-year-old child at the Kids āRā Kids Roswell location, CBS News reported.

McCauley and his wife took a screenshot of what they saw and went to confront the staff to which a director allegedly told them āāIām not really sure because Iām not in the classroom, maybe itās a dietary thing,āā McCauley said.
That explanation clearly was not enough or made any sense. The family then shared the story and screenshot on their social media accounts. Their post prompted immediate backlash with individuals questioning what the day careās intention was and other parents pointing out their children in the image. As a result, Kids āRā Kids President and CEO David Vinson issued a statement with a non-apology noting that the entirety of the video cannot be seen. Vinson also shared that the company would sever ties with the Roswell branch, however, did not explain why and what happened in the incident. āPerception is unfortunately reality, and with the cancel culture, unfortunately, itās the perception," Vinson said.
So essentially, the Kids āRā Kids CEO pointed to blaming ācancel cultureā as the reason why they severed ties with the day care and argued in a sense that the full reality could not be known because only a part of the video was shared. But if the issue is the video not being seen completely, why did the company not share the full footage or explain what happened in the incident to counter claims that racism was being practiced?
