T.I. Offers Florida Teen 1-Year Of Lunch Money After Cafeteria Trashed Her Meal

Rapper T.I. and a prominent civil rights organization have stepped into the case of a Florida teen whose school lunch was thrown away by a cashier because she was 15 cents short.

T.I. was so outraged by a story he heard out of Florida that he decided to become a mediator in the situation.

A 15 year-old teen had her lunch meal tossed in the garbage by a cafeteria worker after coming up 15 cents short at the register. T.I. voiced his outrage in response to a Tweet by Kristen Clarke, the President & Executive Director of The National Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, who broke the story to the masses.

“This sh*t is despicable!!!” T.I. tweeted to the Lawyers’ Committee – an organization headed by civil rights lawyer Kristen Clarke.

“This is the kind of sh*t that deters kids from coming to school. I’d like to take care of her school lunch for the year. I hate to hear this type of thing happening to our children. Petty ass, peon ass, poor excuse for a grow person.”

It just happened again.

Christ The King Middle School in Gretna, Louisiana expelled this beautiful young Black girl saying that her hair style was "unnatural."

She was humiliated and removed from the school over it.

Let's be clear – this is Christianity as White Supremacy. pic.twitter.com/22IIKD9UCk
