I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.

Georgia Teacher Gets Students To Dress Up In KKK Robes For “Reenactment”

This is just all kind of stupid:

DAHLONEGA, Ga. – She allowed her students to wear Klu Klux Klan-like robes for a history lesson.

Tuesday, the Lumpkin County School Board in Georgia will decide the future of a Dahlonega history teacher.

Catherine Ariemma is now on administrative leave.

School leaders say Ariemma allowed four students to wear KKK-like robes for a historical reenactment about discrimination.

It was part of a project for Ariemma’s advanced placement history and film class at Lumpkin High School in Dahlonega.

The superintendent says he doesn’t believe Ariemma was intentionally trying to offend anyone but her decision was a bad one.

The superintendent says other students saw the four walking through the hallways in their costumes and became upset.

Gee do ya think ?

  1. In the country formerly known as, “America” we once had the right to free speech and there were no banned words or symbols.
