And that local complaint was filed by another moron who can't think for shite..
You'd think you'd at least TRY to post accurately; from your own article:
According to the family, when the teacher was asked to give an example of equality, he said, “When you hang one black person, you’d have to hang them all. That is equality".
During the investigation, the teacher told administratorsthat statement was made in the contextSoutherners would respond to people who went to the South to promote equal rights for African-Americans. He said the Southerners would respond, “We treat them all equally. We hang them.”
The teacher WAS NOT defining equality as "hang em all".
He was describing the racism and hatred civil rights workers were met with when they came down south.
But I understand your commitment to half-truths. Carry on.

So you think it's appropriate to tell students that, "Southerners viewed equality as hanging them all?" So he essentially generalized an exteme viewpoint to the Southerners; now that sounds like ignore liberal indoctrination.
Beyond that, as a History Teacher, he thinks of that then, you know, a major historical movement and the whole idea of Seperate But EQUAL. That's just terrible teaching.

1. Doesn't spell his name right (can't Google him for more information unless the name is correct.)
2. Doesn't provide any link or citation to the local stories, even though their briefly mentioned.
3. Doesn't include information about a related incident and complaint two months earlier.
Talk about half-truths.
