You did, in post 25. You noted the picture must have been from early spring.I did not point that out. That picture was not taken in school and therefore the board would have zero authority to act.
How ironic. You appear to be in that cartoon, too.
Yes it was but it was not in the school. The board will have no jurisdiction outside of the school. I have scoured local papers and talked with people in the neighbourhood we are still in contact with and have found nothing to suggest he pulled this stunt before this school year which started 2 weeks ago. If you have fact to support your allegations it has been going on for sometime in class....please share.You did, in post 25. You noted the picture must have been from early spring.
To the best of knowledge, this teacher wearing this outfit is not recent. It’s been going on for some time, and in class.
If it’s only done outside of the school, I agree with you. But I do not think that is the case.Yes it was but it was not in the school. The board will have no jurisdiction outside of the school.

I've heard of it, but I'm not obsessively political.Are you familiar with The 1619 Project?
I've asked you for some examples, especially widespread examples.Are you aware it’s being taught in schools? Are
I suggest your read up on The 1619 Project. It’s the example you say you’re looking for.I've heard of it, but I'm not obsessively political.
I've asked you for some examples, especially widespread examples.
And I've complained that rightwing Americans are grooming our kids to see Washington as a hero rather than a traitor.
In case you're not following, I'm saying that virtually everything we teach our kids is biased according to our understanding of history. Why are you especially excited about CRT?
So far as I can tell, this is just another manufactured outrage by rightwing mindhandlers.
How did the word "shout" turn into "should", twice?Woke is one of many things with a legitimate definition, that has been turned into a far louder propaganda attack term by the right. Basically, it's a technique to let them fight for bigotry without having to admit they are. Just like lying that the election was stolen lets them fight to steal elections while claiming to fight against stolen elections. In the 50's they could should the N word. Now they should the Woke word.
Nah. I've said no such thing. I've asked you for examples of CRT being taught in our schools, especially widespread ones.I suggest your read up on The 1619 Project. It’s the example you say you’re looking for.
What is it you see? I am interested in how people see this as something other than a cry for helpThe Toronto Sun, jaysus, you know what kind of spin they are going to put on this story, right?
- Overall, we rate the Toronto Sun, Right Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that favor the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to a lack of sourcing and scientific positions that do not align with the scientific consensus.
Toronto Sun - Bias and Credibility
RIGHT BIAS These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They maymediabiasfactcheck.com
In the end you see what you want to see, so it isn't my place to tell you NOT to see what you want to see, but it is not what I see.
this must be addressedThis is just friggin' insane. And this is a teacher? I mean really?
And before you summarily dismiss this as some anomaly never likely to be seen again, you may end up being very surprised. Look, I'm all in favor of freedom of expression and being who you are but when you want a front-facing job or one working with children, this is just a bridge too far. Should schools be forced to continue the employment of someone who decides to have swastikas tattooed all over their face.
There has to be a limit.

To those with a paranoia of even the term CRT, I'm sure you/they can find it being taught everywhere. It's like the red scare for the 2020's.I can't speak to your area's school system, but CRT principles are absolutely being taught in many public schools, and that too is cause for concern. It's a warped ideology, and it does not belong in public education, IMO.
I don't get it. Where are we?Remember when gays said they "just want to be able to get married. There is no gay agenda". Now look where we are.
I did; you’re ignoring the Rufo thread. You’re ignoring The 1619 Project.Nah. I've said no such thing. I've asked you for examples of CRT being taught in our schools, especially widespread ones.
I wish you would present some.
And if this is the best you have I’m sure you don’t really have a solid counterargument.To those with a paranoia of even the term CRT, I'm sure you/they can find it being taught everywhere. It's like the red scare for the 2020's.
O not just anything. But if it's something strange related to sex in any way, it's likely supported.The teacher was dumb and the school board defending her was dumb. This = Wokeness? I look at your profile and think to myself "This is the kind of comparison some Rightie would come up with," not a liberal.
Unless, like Paradoxical, you believe anyone doing anything they want (no matter how stupid) is an example of Woke??
The Rufo thread? What's that?I did; you’re ignoring the Rufo thread. You’re ignoring The 1619 Project.
actually, it is you who has no rebuttal to the comparison of CRT in the 2020s to the red scare of the 1950sAnd if this is the best you have I’m sure you don’t really have a solid counterargument.
a year ago conservatives ere saying we needed to teach social skills, common sense and comunity. SEL did thatI did; you’re ignoring the Rufo thread. You’re ignoring The 1619 Project.
You are just parroti9ng the talking points of MSM. It is well known that if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it as true. Trump had nothing to do with 1-6. He told them to demonstrate peacefully. He never ordered them to enter the Capitol building and his discussion about a new slate of electors was not illegal.Trump legitimized hate and disdain for honorable behavior. He directly attacked our democracy, our free press, even our Capitol.
(Yeah, I disagree 100% with your claims above.)
Plus, of course, Trump had no policies. He doesn't even have a clue how the government works, much less the economy or historical matters.
"Woke" is nothing more than part of their shallow culture wars. It's what they do in the absence of real policy because it requires no real thought...
Another liberal head in the sand issue.

who gave the 1-6 insurrectionists blueprints to the capital and why did trump try to have pence killed? seems like trump sure did pkan it, beginning with his tweet asking everybody to be present on 1/6 while he planned to reject the election results and declare himself dictatorYou are just parroti9ng the talking points of MSM.
