This is just plain stupid. Monkey is not a racist term, or at least it wasn’t, but the left has used this word as a way to attack others. For crying out loud, the teacher says the kids are like monkeys in a zoo, and they are. Running around screaming, playing, and not paying attention. Suspension of a teacher for this is crazy.
Monkey is not a racist term until the left makes it into one. Common sense is a trait the progressives lack and have replaced with outrageous, made-up terms from an ideology no one wants. All IMO.
“An Indiana middle school teacher sparked fury when he allegedly told his students that they were “acting like monkeys in a zoo.”
The educator, who teaches fifth grade at the Merrillville Intermediate School, made the remark during class on Feb. 24, which forced his students to go straight to the principal while incensed parents brought up the incident at a subsequent board meeting, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Dexter Suggs, who has served as the school superintendent for the past two years and is black, said the teacher’s words were not meant to be interpreted as racist – but suspended with pay pending an investigation.”
