    I have respect for the teacher. She is willing to risk her job to stand up for her values and is not bending the knee. Every Democrat should take a good long look at her.

    I wonder if they notice if you really overdo what they want like sings with “only white old rich people or poor people who want to be slaves are welcome here”

    “This policy is designed to maintain consistency across all classrooms while ensuring that no one group is targeted or offended by the display of certain items.”

    The district underlined that its policies are not intended to limit free speech but to ensure fairness in classroom materials.

    Imagine being offended by “Everyone is welcome here”. Racist snowflakes the lot of them

    I get it, you don’t want to send the wrong message these days, but seems kind of extreme. Could have just kept it up and added “(except Elon or JD Vance)”

    “West Ada School District has been and always will be committed to fostering a welcoming and supportive learning environment for all students while upholding district policies,” the statement reads.

    Their statement seems to violate their policy as well.

      I loved that they fed what is just boilerplate to the press while missing the irony of copying what the teacher said.

      Also, sports teams are ok? I thought it was about learning? For profit billionaire owned wealth concentrating, public fund leeching, extremely segregated arbitrary loyalty-building exercises have much less of an appropriate place in school–and I quite enjoy athletics.

      I was just thinking that. I wanted to scream at my monitor “you just fucking repeated what the sign said in your statement about why you’re removing the fucking sign!”

    And I’m still running into people everyday that says the U.S.A. is th greatest country in the world by a longshot, they think im crazy that I think they’re crazy.

      The US is objectively not the greatest country, and the statement is tired and trite. It’s a corporate slogan. Only True Believers™️ say that shit, and they’re just crabs in a bucket stepping on each other to climb to the top.

    For anyone who didn’t click through to the article, here are pictures of the two posters in question. She wasn’t asked to remove anything else. The article made clear this wasn’t a situation where the school backed down after pushback, and that even after prolonged meetings and discussions with legal counsel, they’re still threatening her with repercussions if the posters aren’t removed by the end of the school year.

      Well, I mean, clearly you can see that these posters are terrifying to anyone who isn’t onboard for the radical Marxist Communist woke liberal antifa agenda?

      Also, this teacher is just advertising that she’s a GROOMER.

        “White children shouldn’t feel like racists in their own classroom.”

        Maybe these kids need to learn some history, their privilege doesn’t end just because they are young.

      On the first one the brown hands outnumber the paler hands and that scares the shit out of them. The second one has rainbow colors and that also scares the shit out of them.

        I was straight but I looked at this poster and now I’m queer. It really is that simple, a poster can make you LGBT.

          I once had someone tell me that people were turning gay because we put rainbows on everything. I told him that rainbows are how God apologizes for fucking up. He called me a liar, I told him to read the Bible he carried everywhere.

          Never saw him again, I doubt he took my advice or learned anything.

    Districts respond to budget constraints by the state and lawsuits from parents. And about nothing else. I would be calling building admins and working my way up the district complaining vehemently along the way. Teachers don’t need this bullshit.

      You can only say “all lives matter” if you are using it as a bad faith way to shit on the suggest that cops shouldn’t be able to freely murder brown people.

      If it’s not a thought terminating response/part of the catechistic call-and-response slogan routine, then it might actually be a suggestion that all/everyone include black people or queer people.

    Idaho is, has been, and will always be a racist backwater flyover country. I have never heard anything positive coming out of that state.

    I think the board wants a sign that says “some of YOU PEOPLE should bugger off”. What a bunch of cowards
