[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is inappropriate. Maybe if teacher had said for everyone to examine how they have had privilege and how they have been different or faced adversity - asking everyone to do the same assignment would have been more appropriate. The teacher also has no idea what other adversity children in the room may have faced. [b]Maybe they are not muslim or black, but maybe they are a different religion,[/b] or have a health issue, etc. There was a better way to teach this lesson.[/quote] Fieldston School in NY has been dealing with this for years. Including the school resisting efforts by Jewish parents for Jewish students to be able to have their families' history of discrimination and genocide acknowledged. There has been a lot of reporting about it in New York.[/quote]
