[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sort of a spin-off.  Interesting story from Janney about anti-racism.

Anti-racism fight club for preschoolers? That's crazy and totally age-inappropriate. I have a right as a parent to decide how and when to teach my children about Chuck Palahniuk.[/quote]

Can anyone with kids at Janney chime in?[/quote]

It happened. The "fistbook" asked children to identify and write down members of their family that might be racist, and then submit it to the school. It also used terms like "throat punch" and "curb stomp" which absolutely boggles the mind that it crossed an administrators desk without getting pulled.

Oh, and Doyin passed out his personal phone number to children if they "ever wanted to talk more about racism." [/quote]

Was there any pushback/followup/discussion from the school and community?[/quote]
