everyone who listens to us on w j LB in Detroit,
drop one the clothes.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Bombs for the day. Detroit.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
We have a small problem this morning. See there's a
history teacher named Dominique Brown. And if you ask me,
there is an injustice that happened to Dominique because Dominique
Brown was let go from her job at Tailor Preparatory
High School. Yes, let go, fire, terminated, discharged, all because
they didn't like her side hustle, all because teachers are
so underpaid in this country that a lot of them
(00:58):
have to try to find other sources of incomes.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Are other careers. Okay, trust me.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
My mother was an English teacher in South Carolina, and
I've said on this radio public school teachers are disgustingly underpaid,
all right, The humans that we entrust with our most
prized possessions, our children, are barely getting by. There was
a survey done by Anya dot org that found teachers
work more hours per week than other working adults.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yes, an estimated fifty three.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Hours per week, seven more hours than the average working adult.
And teachers, no surprise here, report much less satisfaction with
their base pay than other working adults, and twenty five
percent of their work is uncompensated.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Did you hear what I just said?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Twenty five percent of all the work teachers do is uncompensated,
and sixty six percent say their base salary is inadequate,
compared with thirty nine percent of working adults. Okay, it's terrible,
horrible for what teachers mean to us in our communities.
It's actually kind of criminals. So when you have teachers
like Dominique who clearly love what they do because they're
really you know, there really is no reason to be
(02:00):
a teacher other than love, because you know you're gonna
be overworked and underpaid to If Dominique wants to have
a side hustle, God bless her. I know what you're thinking, Uncleshalla.
What you're saying sounds good. But before I agree, what
is her side hustle? Well, let's go to WTAE Detroit
for the report.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Police.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Dominique Brump, whose rap name is Dripping Honey, has been
an educator for seven years and started teaching history at
Taylor Preparatory High School in August, but all that came
to an abrupt end months later after she says a
parent came across one of her rap videos.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
The first meeting that I had was like the principal
dund and they had told me that the parent wished
to stay anonymous, and she felt as if she didn't
like my rap career and that I was a bad
influence on the kids because I rap.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
She said she was fired in February because she's a rapper.
Before the firing, around Thanksgiving, she says, there were meetings
and an ultimatum.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
My mind, in my heart was telling me two things.
I'm just I couldn't see myself like giving up my
other passion just because somebody didn't like it. They said,
erase all your content. That was all and maybe erast
all your content. I'm just like, respectfully, I can't do that.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Brown acknowledges the profanity in her lyrics, but she says
that has nothing to do with Taylor Prepp and the
positive impact she's had on her students and the community.
In February, on her last day, she created a music
video with her students that has since gone viral. Christina
Lenz says her son in eleventh grader started a petition
in supportive miss Brown, gathering over two hundred student signatures.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Dropping the Clues Box with Dominique brownieka Dripping.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Honey, Dripping Honey fired because of an anonymous hating as
parent complaining saying she's a bad influence on her students
because she's a rapper.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
How you feel like that?
Speaker 4 (03:35):
In Detroit, home with some of the most influential people
ever to pick up a microphone, there is nothing but
a bunch of rapidy, rap ass Negroes and Caucasians in Detroit. Okay,
people in Detroit started rapping soon as they come out
the womb, soon as they get smacked on the ass
by the doctor. They don't cry. They start spitting, Boss,
I don't even know what it thought. Trick Trick, Ice
(03:56):
wear Vessel, Side of Babies, Baby Phase Rade forty two,
Doug cast Doll, Royce five nine d twelve, Danny Brown.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Oh he tries Big Sean. Oh.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
They got this one guy who's considered by many one
of the greatest of all time. He's not on my
personal list, but objectively speaking, you can't deny his place
in hip hop culture. Marshall matters is that name ring
a bell? What I'm telling you is rapping in Detroit
is like breathing, okay, and being from Detroit. There's a
lot of other side hustles she could be doing that
could be considered a bad influence, but rapp ain't one
(04:24):
of them.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yo.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Now she got a record, okay. You heard them talk
about it in the news report.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I saw. I watched it on YouTube.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
It's called Dripping One on One And in the video
she has some.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Of her students, you know actually in the video.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
In the description of the video, it says, Dripping one
on one featuring the best students in the world.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
All I hear is a positive anthem.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Okay, a positive anthem okay, encouraging young ladies not to
be ho east. Okay, I don't know how old Dominique
Brown is, but she doesn't look old. And this is
the first time, probably ever in the history of life,
that the age demographics between adults and kids is really
non existent. And what I mean by that is the
stuff we was raised on in the nineteen hundreds and
early two thousands really ain't no different from you know
(05:04):
what these kids is on now. It's the same type
of content. Okay, argue amongst yourselves. We try to act
like our generation was so much better. They might have
been talent wise, but the content is the same.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Okay. How is the generation to raise off?
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Nwa Uncle Luke lil Kim three six, Mathia and Eminem.
Gonna judge anybody, Okay, as long as that woman is
doing what she's supposed to be doing in that classroom
and her kids are learning and passing. If she wants
to rap in her spare time, let up. And I
bet you all of those kids trust her more than
they trust any other teacher in the school because she
speaks their language.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Okay, how about this?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Instead of stopping teachers side hustles, how about improving pay
because a lot of teachers are getting out of the
teaching business, and a lot of teachers aren't looking to
a lot of people aren't even looking to get into
the teaching business. So if you want to recruit and
retain educators, get their money up, but not only that,
improve the number of hours worked in their overall working conditions.
(05:56):
That's how you gonna keep teachers wanting to be teachers.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
And then the mean time.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
You shouldn't try to stop them from rapping to potentially
find the career to make its meat. You should be
ashamed that they have to attempt to rap to find
a career that make ins meat because you not paying
them enough as a teacher. Please give Preparatory High School
in Detroit the biggest s hull.
Speaker 2 (06:20):

You know what I say, I went to a college
preparatory school that was high school.

If I'm being honest, some of the kids in the
video look older than her. Yeah, okay, choice, it's more
than likely a high school. Okay, rough out there they
grew up rough they all right?
