| 0:00.0 | Y'all, it's been a minute since I've been in a classroom, but are teachers okay right now? |
| 0:04.4 | Sooka, soca, soca, soca, soca, suca, suca, suca, soca, soca. Right, so that footage was posted on Instagram by a Native American activist and businesswoman. |
| 0:21.9 | We said in the caption that a Native American student took the video during his math class at John W. North High School in Riverside, California. |
| 0:27.5 | Saying after several minutes of the teacher war hooping and tomahawk chopping, the student began filming. |
| 0:31.8 | They're going on to urge people to share the video saying the boy gave her permission to post it. |
| 0:35.4 | And adding, we need to end abuse and discrimination against indigenous youth in schools. There is no excuse for this type of behavior. |
| 0:40.8 | We're not in the 1960s anymore. She should know better. And so like a lot of people, I saw |

| 1:29.2 | she just didn't know better, right? |
| 1:30.6 | Saying, hey, let's try and turn this into a learning opportunity. |
| 1:33.1 | Though, to that point, we saw people pushing back on that, |
