Quote from Bill in Black Teacher
Dean: I like Mr. Brady, but... [sighs] I was thinking maybe you could talk to him. Bill: About? Dean: Well, it feels like he's giving special attention to the Black kids, and some of my White friends are feeling left out. Bill: You sneak a sip of the whiskey? 'Cause you're clearly not thinking right. You think those White kids felt bad about all the special attention they were getting from the White teachers? Dean: I-I don't know. It feels like whenever he does something nice for us, everybody stares like... like they're mad. Bill: People predisposed to hating gonna actively hate. Adult Dean: Oh, man. He was almost the first dude to say "haters gonna hate." Dean: And now me, Cory, and Keisa are all on the Knowledge Bowl team, and Brad got bumped. Bill: Listen, you're not doing anything wrong, and neither is Mr. Brady. Seems to me like he's just trying to level the playing field.
