And this will guarantee that her students, no matter what color, have even less of a chance to succeed. If they cannot communicate with people properly, they will be ignored at the very least.

She's being paid to teach, not propagandize or indoctrinate. Or is the problem she'too incompetent to teach the subject?

If we do not expect "children" of color to realize that 2 + 2 = 4 why should we think they are smart enough to understand their, they're, there or verbs tense, or that "I seen" is cringe worthy, or "we be going to rob the 7 11" is correct English. You are immediately judged on two things. Your looks and what comes out of your mouth. The woman is an idiot. If she is not going to teach correctly then I must assume her services are not needed. Her reasoning will simply reinforce that people of color are basically ignorant, stupid and incapable of being educated.

Not yo langwedj, crinjee. Teach the common language so the kids can choose whether THEY want to communicate with the rest of the civilized world. You are hired to teach, not to play God.

She wants to teach linguistics but that what they hired her for? If they contracted for her to teach English then she voided the contract and can be fired. Not put on leave but FIRED. She BROKE the contract and voided it. Fire her immediately.

Slight correction, Cringee -- learning proper grammar is WRITE supremacy. Literacy is the ability to read and write the language. And our common language has been, and is still, English. Do what you were hired to do, teach English.

Good grief! This woman doesn't belong in a classroom. She's not fighting bigots, she's helping them. In the US, under federal law, all children are entitled to a free and appropriate education. Her plan to deny her students their right to learn to read, write and speak standard English, is a burden she has chosen to inflict upon them. That's not her call. She is willfully disarming her students. Those who don't learn to speak standard English at home will be further disadvantaged by their inability to compete with students who received the instruction she denied her students. She needs to be sent packing TODAY.

This woman is the reason so many students are intellectually stunted. It’s her job to teach grammar. She is not there to preach her political religion to the classroom. Parents, this is on you. If you do nothing you are complicit in your child’s academic failure. Demand she be fired along with every other wacko teacher who holds similar views.

Sure, lets let the students learn early on that it is ok to speak like you are illiterate and wish to be member of the permanent welfare underclass. She is making sure that the only jobs her students are qualified for are Rappers or drug dealers. Maybe a cheap prostitute working a corner for the drug dealer. Maybe they will make this teacher the Head of Curriculum for their school system.

If you're white, you aren't actin' white, you are speaking English. Everybody wanted to desegregate schools back in the 60s but that's not looking like such a good idea these days. If you can't learn the basics of language and math maybe you should be in a "special" school.

Hey Marta, did you know that in Africa they did not have reading, writing and arithmetic??? Nor geography, science, physics, chemistry etc. etc..... that all that the whites brought along and taught to stone age people. Did you know that people were classified according to the weapons that they used??? Did you know that African chieftains put their own people in cages and brought them to the sea in order to get a lot of beads??? So why don't you pack your bags, get a one-way ticket to you know where, and don't ever come back!

Oroville Ca? Where the dam self destructed last year? due to lousy math..even worse communication skills. Many of the students there are Latino...she "should" be teaching them Latin...Right? Buuuuut....she never learned Latin, only gibberish, so she teaches gibberish. Perhaps she should learn and teach the "Native" language of the area....except...there really isn't ONE, even 20 miles away they do not understand each other. While all Maidu spoke a form of this language, the grammar, syntax, and vocabulary differed sufficiently that Maidu separated by large distances or by geographic features that discouraged travel might speak dialects that were nearly mutually unintelligible. There were four principal divisions of the language: Northeastern Maidu, Yamonee Maidu (known simply as Maidu); Southern Maidu or Nisenan; Northwestern Maidu or Konkow; and Valley Maidu or Chico.

But will she continue to serve for another two years, completing the term of the 118th Congress? Don’t ask me. Don’t ask her, either — it’s not a question she wants to answer, apparently. Reporters who didn’t know that, if there were any, found out during a Thursday news conference when someone had the audacity to bring it up. “Will you commit to serving your full two-year term for the people of San Francisco?” a reporter asked. “What is this?

While Kennedy’s murderer was declared soon after the assassination to have worked alone, one insider claimed to Fox News host Tucker Carlson that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was directly involved with JFK’s assassination. Carlson noted that questions about the Kennedy assassination have been circulating since it happened, simply because there were a lot of details that didn’t add up or seemed too coincidental. The CIA refused to release its documentation on the killing.

Hugelmeyer is president of the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), and he is just one of a growing number of voices expressing outrage over the proposal put forward by the U.S. Commerce Department under the auspices of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
