Nursing textbook claims direct eye contact with African-Americans is “aggressive behavior”

A nursing textbook is causing a stir online for the startlingly racist and xenophobic claims it makes about many racial and ethnic groups. 

The book, Journey Across the Life Span: Human Development and Health Promotion, was written by Elaine Polan and Daphne Taylor and published by F.A. Davis Company in January 2015.

The controversial passages grabbed public attention Thursday after Jazmine Lattimore, a student at Galen College of Nursing, posted photos on Facebook from a section on giving medical care to African-Americans.

“Direct eye contact in this culture can be considered a form of aggression,” the passage reads. 

The rest of the book reads like a travel guide for racist aliens interested in visiting planet Earth. It offers a chapter on Hispanic Americans claiming nurses should avoid eye contact with them, too, since it’s interpreted as giving the “evil eye.” 

The book inaccurately claims Arab-Americans believe “illness is seen as a punishment for sin, and death is seen as God’s will.”

 This claim is equally off-base when it comes to Muslims. According to Islamic tradition, illness is often seen as a trial or an opportunity to forgive one’s sins — not a punishment for committing sins. Read more (8/11/17)

Six teenagers from the Burundi robotics team, who had come to Washington to compete in an international competition, were reported missing to D.C. police on Wednesday, according to police reports.

The missing teenagers range in age from 16 to 18 and include four males and two females, police said

Police identified the missing teenagers on Twitter as:

Richard Irakoze, 18, a black male with a dark complexion who is 5-foot-11, 140 pounds; 

Kevin Sabumukiza, 17, a black male with a medium complexion who is 6-foot-4, 160 pounds; 

Nice Munezero, 17, a black female with a dark complexion who is 5-foot-7, 140 pounds; 

Aristide Irambona, 18, a black male with a dark complexion who is 5-foot-6, 130 pounds;

 Don Ingabire, 16, a black male with a medium complexion who is 5-foot-8, 130 pounds;

 Audrey Mwamikazi, 17, a black female with a dark complexion who is 5-foot-3, 130 pounds.

We’re living in such a scary world and we, as a community, can’t let this go unnoticed. This racism and hatred  black people experience every day  in America might have become the reason these teens are missing right now. Share this to find them as soon as possible, because you can save a life. If you have any information about them- call the police. Don’t stay aside.
