An Independent School District behavior specialist was fired after a video of him shoving a Black pre-k student went viral.
In the video, Troy Vann of Snook, Texas, pushes the child into a bean bag chair and then pushes his head back into the bean bag. Vann is heard saying, “Tell me no. When I tell you to do something, you do it, boy.” Vann forces the child to stand back up, only to push him again and then shove him down into the bean bag chair. The child is heard whining during the incident.
