As a late boomer, in 1979 I got my first suspension for wearing a T-shirt where Mickey Mouse was flipping off Iran.
That was when I started to realize what was liberal and conservative.
First time I was called a racist was 1982 when I was senior. I was nominated for the top spot in the high school senior class popularity contest. So was a very popular black basketball player.
He had stolen my gym clothes when we were freshman, so I didn't vote for him. I was asked by the captain of the cheerleaders who I was voting for. Certainly would not vote for myself. I voted for a guy that was the real deal good person.
She called me a racist for not voting for the basketball guy.
Point is, schools have been pushing stupidity for 40 years.
Department of education needs to go.
