Agents detained Anthony Smith, a social studies teacher and one of the organizers of the Philadelphia Coalition for Racial Economic and Legal Justice (Philly for REAL Justice), at his home Wednesday morning, his attorney Paul Hetznecker said. His arrest came just days after he was lauded in an article in Philadelphia Magazine for his activism. U.S. Attorney William M.

Not under Fed charges.
Terrorists

All businesses advertising in the that rag need to be called out, now, and until they repudiate the magazine.
Maybe the Commonwealth will revoke his teaching license.
Oh, yeah. Right.
Unintentionally funny: the Inquirer describes the events where the alleged crimes took place as “heated demonstrations”. That’s a new one. I’m keeping it.
My social studies teacher was great and had a reputation for strictness and rigor.
Of course that was back in the mid-late 1960s.
