"He said when the injustice was so egregious, when what he was being asked to do was so absurd to a sound mind, so alien to common decency and so manifestly wrong to the conscience then he could not accept it and could not bow to the order. He said this would be wrong and in violation of his conscience.
He claimed teachers around this country were being forced to participate in something - they were being forced to use the pronoun 'they' with regard to 'he' or 'she'.
He said they were not just being asked to allow or acknowledge something but condone and endorse it and this was something he would not do."
If only the run-of-the-mill teacher had this man's courage.
This man is a hero:
