The Principal & the Devil on her Shoulder

How many of us heard this before: “the devil made me do it?” don’t worry I’ll wait.... (cues jeopardy music) right! nowhere, unless the person is on trial for murdering a whole movie theater or school. That’s the only time it’s acceptable! Any other time is just ludacris *Mike Tyson vc*. Nevertheless, that’s the case in Georgia. Nancy Gordeuk, founder of TNT Academy in Stone Mountain, was captured on camera Friday trying to get the crowd to listen to the valedictorian, who she skipped during the program and who spoke at the end of the ceremony however, when the audience begins to file out, Gordeuk, who is white, says: “You people are being so rude, to not listen to this speech. It was my fault that we missed it in the program.”Amid the hubbub, Gordeuk ranted, “Look who’s leaving—all the black people.”

The crowd, what seemed to be predominately or at least half African American erupted. Gordeuk later released a statement saying “This was a terrible mistake on my part of the graduation ceremony on Friday night,” Gordeuk wrote, according to WXIA Atlanta “The devil was in the house and came out from my mouth. I deeply apologize for my racist comment and hope that forgiveness in in your hearts.” Once the video went viral, she even went as far as to send the parents an email apologizing to the parents and students.

My Take: First off, she funny as hell. Nowhere comedic funny unless that comparison is to Micheal Richards. She made a mistake, absolutely but I’ve never seen a person make a mistake on purpose though; a few of them at that. Her intent was to be heard, her frustrations were going to be heard. 1st mistake: Not quitting while you’re ahead with the “you people” comment. 2nd mistake: Forgetting what era she’s currently living in; either that or she underestimated the audience and assumed they haven’t upgraded from flip phones yet. But that can’t be it though, since the school’s 48 graduates had to pay up to $300 for the graduation ceremony. 3rd mistake: “the comment” itself. She’s a pathetic, pitiful, poor excuse for a principal (say that 5 times). No established leader should make this kind of mistake, be an example. I wonder how many students she disciplined and told them “you have to accept responsibility for yours actions.” Hypocrisy!!! I’ll tell you this much, once those Black parents, withdraw their Black children, and recommend to their Black friends & family that this Academy isn’t sensitive to their kind; when approached just say “Jesus made me do it”

Lastly, the whole “the devil made me do it” comment, complete cop out. I’m sure there’s serial killers rolling over in their graves and jail cells on death row right now, saying “Don’t this b**** know that excuse is only reserved for real n*****?!!!?

SERIOUSLY THOUGH...

Congratulations to all the 2015 graduates of TNT Academy! continue to move onward and upward.

Remembering Ty Wansley (V103-Chicago)

Ty Wansley, Chicago radio news anchor and talk show host for more than 35 years, was being remembered Thursday for his passion and legacy in radio as well as the community he served.

Wansley, 63, died Wednesday at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, in Evanston Illinois where he was admitted last week for treatment of congestive heart failure and related illness, according to his brother, Larry Wansley. He previously suffered a series of small strokes.

“He really was a good guy, a caring guy who touched so many people,” his brother recalled.

Wansley, was the director of news and information for three iHeart Media stations here in Chicago. WGCI, WVAZ-V103 & WGRB AM 1390. Over time, Wansley’s career interviews were some of his more highlighting moments. Ty interviewed community leaders, mayors, congressmen, governors, and presidents with ease. He will be surely missed for his passion, wit and hard work ethic. “Some people just do a job and others are passionate about it,” said longtime friend Sherren Leigh, former publisher of Today’s Chicago Woman. “Ty was passionate about radio.” Leigh said Wansley was especially proud of a career in which he had interviewed “everyone from politicians to business people to famous jazz musicians.”
