>”We all agreed to it,” said a student in Hooper’s class. “He didn’t really do anything wrong.”
“The fact that the students really devised the content specifically means that it’s something that matters to them. And to say that they were used as pawns is false,” a mom in the district said, according to WESH.
I wonder how many people will miss this part entirely. The teacher didn’t give the kids the idea, simply let them be kids. Are we, as a society so fucking fragile these days that we are offended by children play acting?
When I was in high school, we (students) did the same sort of thing during Black History Month. There are plenty of ways that school curricula cross lines, but I think it’s unreasonable to say that they’re brainwashing kids and using them as political pawns because junior got himself a black friend in spite of his parents’ racism and figured, hell, while we’re talking about my new friend’s history, might as well give him a day in the sun. I wouldn’t usually post like this or get bent out of shape, but… I read the comments on the Fox News website. That was bad for my soul.
Fired for how he had white students “bow” to black students in a skit they all agreed to participate in based around black history month?
Does anyone remember learning about the holocaust in a similar manner where the teachers would separate us by eye color or have us wear yellow stars?
Seems more like fired for the audacity to openly disagree with book banning and using methods that are against that areas cultural and social indoctrination.
This isn’t even political anymore. The Christian ideology has never been political. This is just about human rights. The rights that are only pretend and only exist in print.
They don’t want these children to be shown anything different, then they might actually think for themselves and not fall in line properly.

For this ridiculous and heinous act, placing him on leave is only acceptable if it’s a prelude to termination.

Why are the words “white” and “black” capitalised everywhere in this article? Does Fox think they’re proper nouns now?

If you see fox news or CNN and automatically say, “Bet that’s not true” you’re probably right so go and investigate on your own.
This guy’s name is Ethan Hooper. He posted the video on TikTok which you can watch on a variety of platforms.
