San Francisco Board of Education Vice President Alison Collins has been stripped of her leadership position and removed from a role on any committees.

This comes after tweets from 2016 resurfaced in which Collins, who is Black, referenced the Asian-American community, white supremacy and racism.

The board approved the no-confidence measure with a 5-2 vote.

The members who authored the measure say Collins has failed to accept responsibility for her words, and should resign.

In the event she does not resign, the resolution also calls for Collins' removal from all board committees for the duration of her term, effectively immediately.
