Wow!😳 Texas teacher fired after assigning an illustrated Anne Frank book
Censoring one of the most important works documenting the Holocaust and punishing the teacher who dared teach it is pretty much in line with what fascists do. Horrific antisemitism.

The Koch dark money machine was first launched for the purpose of quashing the federal indictment over crimes against the Osage that promised to put Charles Koch behind bars for a decade.

You and me both!! It's sexist, racist, passive aggressive, incredibly outdated, and more. How would they deal with a Native American or Orthodox Jewish boy, whose hair has religious/spiritual/cultural meaning? Plus, they're disregarding state law. Hopefully our outrage (& sharing) will help shame the school. (& hopefully the specter of a hefty law suit will help them "see reason".
