[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honest questions:

Would white parents have chased out this teacher if, say, she had taught Algebra instead of what she was teaching?
Would white parents have chased out this teacher if they were white teaching the same thing?

The subject line reads as if the white parents chased out the educator on account of the educator’s race. I’m not sure that’s the case.[/quote]

Im pretty sure they would not have chased out the educator if she were white.  Since they had no idea what she was "teaching" the first question is irrelevent.  She wasn't teaching critical race theory.  In fact that wasnt even on her radar.  [/quote]

I think it's a salient point that she never actually started, so it's tough to say she was fired or chased or that she was teaching anything. She isnt even a teacher, for that matter. It would be good to hear this story from the perspective of the parents, and how this lady ever landed on their radar.

As for Cobb County, I think some facts are in order.  Here is the demographics of the student body:

Student Demographics*

Caucasian - 34.9%Black - 30.6%Hispanic - 23.8%Asian - 6.0%Other - 4.7%

This is a diverse community.  I'm struggling with the narrative of the evil white supremacists in Cobb.   [/quote]

+1 The narrative is incorrect [/quote]

The narrative you’ve created is incorrect. Cobb County wanted to hire her after Cherokee County parents protested her employment in Cherokee County to the point that she decided not to take the position after all. When they found out she was being hired by a nearby district, they started the campaign against her in Cobb Co. Cherokee Co. is just over 77% white. And she did accept the position in Cobb County, and began working there, but the position was redefined in a way to hide her from the racists, making her position ineffective and meaningless, leading to her quitting.

So yeah, the misinformation you got from Imagination Land instead of the article linked is inaccurate. Maybe try other sources than inside your head. [/quote]

I was referring to the demographics of Cobb County. [/quote]

They’re not the ones who chased her off. I know what you were doing. [/quote]

I'm not defending any of the actions against her. I'm saying that Cobb County is not a predominantly white county that's like Cherokee County. You are confused about posters on this thread.[/quote]
