EAG News: ELKHART, Ind. – A lesson on segregation landed an Indiana high school teacher on administrative leave after students posted “whites only” and “blacks only” signs near school bathrooms and drinking as part of social studies class.
Officials did not release the name of the Concord High School social studies teacher who Concord Community Schools Superintendent John Trout said was designed to “demonstrate the feel of government-sanctioned segregation that previously existed in portions of our country.”
“Concord Community Schools appreciates its educators attempting to be innovative in their teaching approach,” the statement read, according to The Elkhart Truth. “However, methods and tactics that can be viewed as harassing or discriminatory to students and teachers are not appropriate and are prohibited in our schools.”
Must have sucked for the Asian or Hispanic students. They couldn’t use ANY of the bathrooms or drinking fountains!
I just don’t understand why they have to do actual reconstructions of all this past history that portrays whites as being evil. IMO this is to produce white liberal guilt. If they spend this much time and effort of Islam, we probably would have won the war 10 years ago.
The article did not list the race of the instructor, hmmm. On the good side, suspended with pay for the holidays. How convenient……
No wonder she was suspended for the “Blacks Only” signs. Everybody knows it’s supposed to be “Coloreds Only”…
; )
Elkhart is one of the few liberal shit-holes in the normally red state of Indiana. Because of voters in Gary, Indy, Lafayette, Kokomo, and Elkhart, Indiana turned blue for Obama in 2008. However, in 2012, not even mass voter fraud was enough to keep the state blue.
Indiana and N. Carolina were the only states who voted for Obama in 2008, but said “no fucking way” in 2012.
There is no better way to learn than hands on. If a particular group is offended, angry, upset, etc. while trying to teach what offends, angers and upsets, then good! They learned fast.
Many people overanalyze why this kind of thing keeps happening.
The real reason is simple.
The punishment is always paid time off. What we working stiffs refer to as paid vacation.
Any rational person would consider that an incentive, not a punishment.
If the teacher had instructed the kids to post XX chromosome only bathrooms and XY chromosome only bathrooms the teacher would have been brought up on hate crime charges.
Only after some Biology teacher explained what it meant to the cops, I’ll bet.
🙂
Did they also explain it was the Democrats that were behind the Jim Crow laws? I don’t think so.
