Boismier quit NPS when a parent complained after she put butcher paper over her bookshelves with the words “Books the state doesn’t want you to read” in light of HB 1775.

She also gave out a QR code to Brooklyn Public Library, which has the Books Unbanned project.

Is there some contest we don't know about? America's Biggest Fascist

1. Curious.

The letter says there is no place for a "liberal political agenda", not a "political agenda". More proof that they want to use the schools to indoctrinate kids. Fascism indeed.

2. Teachers have been targets of the rw for a while, now. This is probably happening on many places

we haven't heard about, yet.

3. 'I might even quit on the spot:' Oklahoma educators react to Ryan Walters' primary win

Many Oklahoma educators say they’re worried for what’s ahead after Oklahoma State Secretary of Education Ryan Walters defeated his opponent, Shawnee Public Schools Superintendent April Grace, in Monday night’s Republican primary runoff for State Superintendent.

At his victory party Tuesday night, Walters declared his win over Grace was a definitive statement by the people of Oklahoma about the direction they want to see public education head.

“Oklahomans have spoke loudly and clearly tonight,” Walters said. “Oklahomans repeat that they want a better education for their kids and they’re concerned that they’re not getting that.”

But it was a different set of emotions for Tulsa Classroom Teachers Association President Shawna Mott-Wright and her fellow teachers.

I posted this in GD just a week ago!

Teachers here are NOT happy, even the Rethug versions aren't really happy, for which I have no explanation for their distaste for this asshole.
