VA teacher says encouraging behaviors like 'following directions' is White supremacy
Fox News ^ | September 14, 2021 | Emma Colton

Posted on 09/14/2021 1:26:29 PM PDT by lowbridge

A Virginia high school teacher posted a video criticizing the concept of students behaving themselves and sitting quietly in class as part of White supremacy. 

"I stated that PBIS is White supremacy with a hug and a lot of y'all wanted to know more about that," the teacher said in the video that was originally posted to his TikTok account in May. The teacher was referring to Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS), which is framework used by Virginia public schools "to support positive academic and behavioral outcomes for all students."

The teacher appears to be Josh Thompson, an English teacher at Blacksburg High School. 

The Montgomery County School District told Fox News of the video that, "A teacher is entitled to their personal belief regarding any division program. The statements made by this teacher do not reflect our PBIS program or the behavioral expectations that we have of students in our schools."

The school district also noted "MCPS has used PBIS in our schools for eight years. We are proud of our PBIS work. This work helps create a standard for social-emotional learning and behavior expectations in the school building."

Would this include following directions to get the shots and to wear masks?

As somebody once said while cleaning up from Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans - you can’t fix stupid.

And this is so far beyond stupid there are no words.

Funny picture.

Like the story I first heard as being about a student in India riding on a train but having to stand while holding up a bag in his arms. An older passenger said “Just set the bag down and let the train carry you both to the same place.”

You know that is an obvious political and hypocritical answer because you know dam well from the speaker’s point of view “following directions” is ONLY a bad thing if the speaker does not like who is issuing the directions. Otherwise the stupid speaker would, subjectively, admit they want all Leftist directions followed to the letter.

Does that mean people of color are too stupid to follow directions or to sit quietly and behave themselves?

The high school is 77% white. I think in his class kids should just do whatever they want. They should renounce their whiteness by acting in his stereotype of how blacks act.

"Anyone who doesn’t know the hallmarks of CIVILIZATION should not be leading our children."

Exactly. My first thought too.

"Ubuntu is an African word which means "I am who I am because of who we all are". It highlights the fact that we are all interdependent. The Golden Rule is most familiar in the Western world as "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"."

I wonder if she will be “white enough” to follow directions on bottles that say “not for human consumption” or ‘poison’ or if she will ignore them? Eating what ever foods she makes must really be interesting if she doesn’t believe in following instructions.

But, but, but, I thought that schools and teachers were pushing drugs on boys to keep them quiet.
