[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone saying "fire the teacher" needa an answer for "how will MCPS find a replacement?". By and large, teachers across the country are DONE. Qualified people aren't lining up form these jobs. [/quote] Not being a racist should be a qualification for being a teacher. I’d rather my kids had subs all year rather than a racist. And I’m a veteran MCPS teacher.[/quote] I’m also an MCPS teacher and I’m pretty sure I’ve been taking trainings for the past few years that teach us that we are all a little racist. They’ve had us take little unconscious bias quizzes to show it. So I don’t think he can be fired for the original sin of being racist if we all are.[/quote] Unconscious bias doesn’t make you racist. A refusal to acknowledge your unconscious bias and make adjustments before you act are what make you racist.[/quote] Well so what should have happened was a confidential discussion with the teacher and possibly some training. But the public proclamation of the “hate bias incident” indicates that the agenda is different. He’s to be made into an example in the public square. [/quote] The problem comes from the top. BCC is full of accolade chasing students who want nothing more than to be able to write an essay about how they lead a group to “civil disobedience” against the great crime of giving a student a bad grade on a test. The religion of this are is competitive college admissions, and they’ll be damned if some teacher stands in their way. This guy gave some student a great opportunity to show colleges how socially aware they are, so they will take it and run with it. A society of teenage prosecutors looking to get ahead in life has formed. It’s as dangerous to society as the young District Attorneys more concerned with creating a name for themselves than actual justice.[/quote]
