[quote=Anonymous]I am a WASP but I'm not a huge fan of kids singing Christmas songs in a public school. I went to a DCPS decades ago and the (presumanbly Christian) African American principal did not allow Chirstmas songs. That said, I am not sure what the cultural makeup of Peabody is. If you are white, I would not speak up and complain about the kids being taught an old black spiritual. That's not a good use of your energy imo. You might offend people and be seen as the white gentrifier telling African American students and teachers not to sing songs from their culture. I just would not go there.[/quote]
