As gold sunlight filtered into her kitchen, English teacher Mary Wood shouldered a worn leather bag packed with first-day-of-school items: Three lesson-planning notebooks. Two peanut butter granola bars. An extra pair of socks, just in case.

It sounds more like fan-fiction then a serious article

They write all the articles like that, I think it’s supposed to get the sheep crying in their programmed fake empathy center and never pay attention to anything else.

There’s enough red flags on this woman to decorate a Soviet government office. It’s so obvious from the story she purposefully intended to indoctrinate her students.

Oh, and who the hell carries around extra socks, “just in case?” Does this woman have a foot fetish fling with another teacher or something? Needing extra socks all the time is not normal.

Todd Howard is to games what Tom Cruise is to cinema. He cackles when I suggest this theory to him. Slight, boyishly handsome, sharp-jawed and tousle-haired, he has the look of classical antiquity. As the studio’s leading man since the early noughties, he has become a semi-mythical figure to gamers, who hang off his every word. Now 52 years old, the only real sign of him being flesh and bone are some faint bags under his sea-blue eyes. He is reserved but not at all shy, talkative but never all that forthcoming – especially about his life outside of games.

(Legitimately from a GQ article on Starfield.)

It's written by a woman, so yeah that tracks.

that forbids teachers from making students “feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress” on account of their race

They didn't think this through, huh?

This is literally the point of CRT.

Sure, but the rule is probably in place to protect poor minorities from '“feel[ing] discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress” on account of their race'

They will add the word minorities now they've learned their lesson

Bad move, that might end up including whites. They'd avoid that, just like they had to remove it from Rule 1 on Reddit.

Well no specifically it is in response to teaching like this. Books that tell the truth about race have been banned for some time.

It was written by the color blind types though so who knows what they mean?

CRT was written explicitly by people who rejected colorblind arguments. That's the whole point behind "racial awareness".

Ha! Good for the students. The pushback begins.

I thought peanut butter was banned from schools, because of all the darling little Darwinian losers who die if they're in the same building as Mr Peanut. (But see, it was the most popular bag lunch when I was a kid. My school didn't even HAVE a cafeteria, anyone within 5 or 6 blocks walked their asses home for lunch.)

The entire style and tone of the piece isn't journalistic, it's "creative writing", meant specifically to manipulate emotions. It's as yellow as chinaman piss.

No, no teacher should ever "trust" the student in the manner described. This is the vernacular of a groomer.

Like they say that children should be able to 'trust' adults with gender garbage.

The “strong woman” photo they took of the cunt alone is hilarious, she’s the victim for pushing racebait bullshit of course

Whinging emotional goblin tries to teach racist garbage instead of an understanding of the subject. Cries loudly when called out.

Teaching should be done exclusively by people who have actually spent 20+ years OUTSIDE academia. Women going straight from highschool to teaching are nearly entirely useless at their job.

This has been going on for ages and the Washington Post never saw fit to report on that. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, they hysterically cry about one of their indoctrinators being reported.

Anyone who gets photographed like that can be summarily dismissed as a lightweight who can’t be taken seriously.

She clearly can't trust them again. She should quit, and spend her time warning other teachers like her that they're not safe in schools either and convincing them to quit as well.
