The systemic and institutional racism is alive and well.

It appears that Jonathan has had to provide a form of survival in the majority Caucasian environment - too typical of what African Americans endure daily. He uses his headphones to survive.

The optics of wearing headphones in school could get him in trouble.

First of all, it could diminish his percentage of accuracy in information for his academic pursuit.

Secondly, he could eliminate clarity in what is being transmitted.

Thirdly, he would most likely brand himself with staff and adults as "not serious" and "goofying off".
