I will use my black privilege to post this thread free of fear of judgement from white liberals.

Quote

According to Meiselas, Esquith was rehearsing his students for this year’s play and reading from a section of Huckleberry Finn about the duke and the king, merry actors who provide some of the book’s comedy. The Room 56 students were practicing Shakespeare, not Twain, but Esquith thought the passage was relevant. In one performance, Esquith read, “the king came prancing out on all fours, naked. He was painted in rings and stripes all over in all sorts of colors and looked as splendid as a rainbow.”

Meiselas said Esquith said if he couldn’t raise enough support for the annual play, he guessed the class would have to similarly perform naked.

Esquith was joking. He does that a lot, as anyone who knows him has long been aware of. The school district has provided no significant funds for the annual play and Esquith’s many field trips and other projects, but his work has attracted many wealthy and influential supporters, so he was not expressing a real worry. The Shakespearean plays are very low-budget, since they are done in his small classroom with the audience on risers and the many musical instruments mostly donated.

But a teacher who was in the room took him seriously, reported this to the principal and the principal reported it to the district. From there on, Meiselas said, the district has been conducting an open-ended investigation with no apparent charges and no due process for Esquith. No child has complained. No parent has complained. The teacher who made the first report emailed him in April to say “I just want you to know that I am here for you . . . and I wish you the best resolution possible!”

Not the best joke to tell around 5th graders but... *shrugs*

Yeah, I read about the "teacher jails" I think last year. Can't remember if some particular incident drew attention to it, but it made the rounds on the liberal blogs.

The intro to that piece is so weird. "How can they do this to someone who has the approval of Ian McKellan, the Dalai Llama, and Oprah!?"

Sometimes when I'm feeling frisky I order a Coke Zero instead of a Diet Coke, but I have to be mindful of my company. Nothing screams, "I'm uncomfortable with who I am as a man," like drinking Coke Zero.

Got a mini fridge full of Coke Zero. A goddamn mini fridge. That's a slippery slope away from collecting piss bottles.

Ouch. Always felt self-conscious ordering Coke Zeros at restaurants.
Be with your lady friend who orders regular Coke.
Way too often the waitress mixes the order up, then quickly corrects herself with an insincere apology

I want to come clean about something. I'm that guy who orders a LG Baconator combo meal and get's a Coke Zero.
Gave up soda for years, only drinking diet soda occasionally. I've relapsed. It's not just diet either.

Diet Pepsi is the one true zero calorie cola. Arguing Diet Coke vs. Coke Zero is like arguing between drinking lye and drinking cloyingly sweet lye

People I know IRL have been posting about this teacher on Facebook. Apparently he is well known for mentally and verbally abusing children as well as openly discussing his sex life with 11 year olds and making other creepy comments at kids. Seems people who had him as a teacher are more surprised that this is what finally got him in trouble.
