      Teacher fired for teaching a poem & a Ta-Nehisi Coates essay. Please keep telling me that the anti-CRT movement isn't a moral panic targeting a wide range of Black thought.https://www.wjhl.com/news/local/sullivan-county-teacher-facing-termination-at-school-board-meeting-tuesday-supporters-to-gather/ …

      A bit more to it. If you read the docs he just got a warning for that essay related to 2 issues 1st is formal but silly, the 2nd is that the essay was First White President. He didn't assign a counter point of view & when asked why he said "There are no credible counter views"

          I don't think he should have been fired, but your response is kind of a non sequitor.
