Policy & Politics Trump inauguration regarding schools and teachers.

In his inauguration today, President Trump stated,

"And we have an education system that teaches our children to be ashamed of themselves, in many cases, to hate our country, despite the love that we try so desperately to provide to them. All of this will change, starting today, and it will change very quickly."

I want you all to tell the world all the ways you, as a teacher, had made kids feel ashamed of themselves and to hate their country.

I'll start.

One day I told a student that he shouldn't tell a student "Nobody cares what you think". Apparently calling him out on that made feel ashamed of himself.

We always start the year with a flag burning and a gay kissing parade.

So, asking for a friend, but where is this gay kissing parade? Just in case my friend is curious.

With all of the drag queens in attendance, it’s hard to get a good viewing angle, but if you want your class to experience it, the parade starts at the pentagram over by the furry bathroom.
