Thank you Bari for writing this. This sums up my thoughts on the article too. Not standing up to what is wrong regardless of where it comes from is cowardly. And no parent has an excuse for it. Cowardly behavior is what allowed the worst things in our country to live on. The thing that annoys me the most is the parents I have witnessed who will go to a BLM protest or tweet about BLM but wouldn’t think of sending their kids to their local school district (where these very lives are being poorly educated) to try to affect some meaningful change. The same thing goes for teachers unions. They will spit all kinds of social justice buzz words and phrases, but will fight you not to measure their pay raises by how well they educate students under their care.
