"It was in good fun. There was no political agenda behind it," the teacher said. He said the video was being "maliciously used."

B.S. It was promoting racism and divisiveness.

Fire his racist a**

“My heart is for my students and the parents, first and foremost.”

Yea — right. Just like all the other “Master’s Degree Teachers” who think they are smarter and know better than parents.

If it were in reverse, a white teacher would have been FIRED already, with followup civil rights charges from the Federal government.

“ A Florida teacher who was accused of having White students in his classroom bow to Black students is on leave.…”
*************************************************************

On leave? ONLY on leave? And probably PAID leave since he’s a government employee.

I wonder what the punishment would have been had he had the black students bow to the white students? Would that have been “all in fun”?

“It was in good fun”

Reverse the roles and the teacher never teaches again and is forced to work at McDonald’s as janitor.

"...There was no political agenda behind it," the teacher said.

It's inherently political, hateful, and divisive. The teacher should be fired.

You are going to have to train the children to get into the boxcars.

Here is a link to what looks like a picture of him, ya nothing political or no motive at all.

6' 6'' high school student beats female teacher's aid after
she took his video game away from him. *Reportedly* she's
got multiple broken ribs but is expected to live...

I'm not bowing to anyone but The Lord.

[rellic]

I’m surprised any white student complied.
I had respect for teachers,
But my parents taught me right and wrong.
I won’t do stupid at the behest of an idiot with a BA, or MA degree.

[Menehune56]

I think I see why he wasn't summarily fired for unforgivably bad judgment.

[changeitback440]

“not tolerate the use of our children as political pawns by anyone, including a classroom teacher. Any employee who creates videos or other content with students in an effort to exploit them for political purposes will be immediately removed from the classroom, placed on administrative leave, and swift action will be taken to terminate employment.”

Let’s see if they follow through.

“The Orange County Public School District issued a statement saying that it will “not tolerate the use of our children as political pawns by anyone, including a classroom teacher. Any employee who creates videos or other content with students in an effort to exploit them for political purposes will be immediately removed from the classroom, placed on administrative leave, and swift action will be taken to terminate employment.””

Sounds good to me. But it shouldn’t be just for creating videos. Any politization and repression of opinion should be forbidden, whether one makes a video of it or not.

“... after being shared by the popular right-wing account Libs of TikTok.”

after being shared by the popular honest-wing account Libs of TikTok.

Fixed it.

[BenLurkin]

Libs of TikTok is “right-wing”?

Ms. Grossman, you appear to have a powerful left-wing bias.

“It was in good fun. There was no political agenda behind it,” the teacher said..”

Then, did he also REVERSE the roles based on skin color??
- have the black kids bow and act like servants to the white kids???

Wouldn’t THAT all be “in good fun” too???
