Black mother Kila Posey was outraged after learning that her child’s Atlanta public elementary school was segregating classrooms based on race. 

According to a report from WSB-TV Atlanta, Posey uncovered that the school’s principal was segregating classes based on race when she insisted that her child be moved to a different classroom. The principal, Sharyn Briscoe, told Posey that her child would be “isolated” in the desired classroom because it wasn’t a “black class.”
