In 2012, my students had a Hoods Up For Trayvon Martin day,

Did they get high on "purple drank" and attempt to kill strangers?

No?

Not much of a "Trayvon Martin Day" then ...

Racism remains an EXCUSE to not get an education and a real job -— and be a law-abiding, respectable AMERICAN.

Thank You Obama, Holder, Sharpton and Jackson.

work on something more relevant with students

Hey lady, how about working on something more relevant with them like giving them skills to support themselves and get jobs, not this BS.

That day I abandoned the lesson plan, got my badge maker out and we spent the day making protest art. We made badges from Arizona labels, Skittles wrappers and pictures of Trayvon.

 

Hey, I could do that.

A teacher describes how the death Trayvon Martin made ger scrap her lesson plan and work on something more relevant with students.

Refusing to “take your licking” is unjust. I get it.

And just how many Saint Tray-vons did she bring back to life with this!

[IronJack]

Your students didn’t fight jack sh_t. But I’ll bet they all got an easy A for this waste-of-time feel-good “project” that looks like it was assembled by first graders who ran out of finger paints.

They should put more effort into fighting gangs, and the violence they reap.

If I were an insensitive racist I would suggest that the Trayvon “art” could be used for target practice.

"I abandoned the lesson plan, got my badge maker out and we spent the day making protest art."

"That's real retarded sir"

Here's a little art message for the chill'rens....

Was the lesson plan she scrapped on cursive writing?

This is why America will not only be surpassed by other countries in terms of quality of life, but will not even be a decent place to live in a few years.

New Zealand had a lesbian prime minister: we have a homo-marxist-sunni president who thinks white people should lay down and let black people kill them.

Canada has a human-rights commission: We’ll be there soon and we have the knock-out game.

Greece is socialist: We have a form of socialism that empowers huge corporations and increasingly strangles average Americans and much of the US has extremely crappy weather.

None of these countries have gun rights. I’d rather not live in a country where the only hope I have of protecting my family is in the few guns I own.

She probably is paid 50-70k of taxpayers' dollars along with with benefits....and tenure....and the summer off for teaching this crap in her art classes.

Obama/DeBlasio/Hillary voter, for sure.

Hey, teacher: When someone is attempting to kill you by repeatedly banging your head against the ground while holding you down, is shooting him in order to defend yourself an example of justice or injustice?

[GeronL]

If the students hadn’t agreed with her, would she have shown off anti-thug art
