A pro-BLM teacher forced out of her job at a South Carolina school
Once an eighth-grade history teacher at the school in small-town Hilton Head, non binary instructor Lane Cogdill was moved schools two summers ago over the since deleted TikTok video, which at the time sparked debates and even death threats for Cogdill.
Amid the backlash, the teacher - also an avid TikToker with a pronounced social media following - was transferred to a nearby adult education center in Beaufort amid calls for Codgill's firing.
The controversy would soon sputter out, while Cogdill would continue posting progressive, often polarizing content after being reprimanded by the district's superintendent and school principal.
Now, it appears Codgill - who uses 'ze/zir,' 'they/them' and 'he/him' pronouns - is back to teaching kids and posting problematic snippets, including some that insist that concealing student's gender changes are part of her school's policy.
Staffers at Silver Spring International Middle School - whose website lists Codgill as a staffer - this week reportedly said they are 'looking into' their new employee's checkered past.
'Hey y'all, I have some thoughts about what's going on in the world as a history teacher who cares about racial justice,'
'I keep hearing people say, I understand protesting, but I don't understand rioting and looting, and let me just remind y'all that this country was literally built by black people.
'Black people's bodies were literally the currency that our white founding fathers used to fund the revolution,' Cogdill says, before declaring: 'So as far as I'm concerned, as a white person and as a history teacher, if your ancestors built this country, you have the right to burn the motherf***er to the ground.'

It’s a Freak
There are decent and not so decent Bluffton schools. The younger grades on HH are 60% hispanic due to all the hotel workers who don’t live there but enroll their kids in the schools. Nothing is done about it.
It keeps them from rooting.
I’m thinking of getting one for the dog.
“gets shaved in a barber shop “
XD XD What is that about?
Why should ze/zir be teaching our children?

Some people simply want to have a guilt complex over something in the past, even if they have to fabricate it from their imagination.
That right there is the crux of what they are teaching our kids... ‘Theft is not bad! Go ye therefore and take whatever you want. You deserve it.’

Home schooling, Amen!
Oink!
I heard a leftist use “zir” once. I immediately responded “Xur!* Where? He can bring the entire Ko-Dan Armada right to us. We’ll all be killed as there’s no starfighters left. I’m referring to the 1984 movie “The Last Starfighter.”
Leftist had no reply.
*Pronounced the same as “zir.”
Barbers tend to disagree.
