Nanny Rant: I Saw Your (Black) Nanny

Is I Saw Your Nanny just an excuse to bash black nannies? Like how many pics of Afro-Caribbean women behaving badly do we need to see?

Go on any 'mommy' site these days and encounter at least one thread a day attacking nannies with veiled and not so veiled racial over-tones, "she had a thick Jamaican accent" OR "she was eating fried chicken" read BLACK BLACK BLACK. Check out the trolls on URBAN BABY.  Some of the things they said about Yoselyn Ortega were totally racist! Black Nanny bashing is in vogue.

On weekends when parents are forced, by those inconsiderate Black nannies, to hang out with their kids, they do all the same s**t only worse.  Texting half asleep walking their strollers into people, chatting and networking in parks with other neighborhood parents while their kids run into the road or eat sand. These A-holes even text or tweet while their kids are doing art projects or gym performances and staring them right in the face.

But that's okay because they're WHITE.
