Is this supposed to be some kind of history lesson? What are they supposed to be celebrating, other that bigotry and hatred?

5. Bulls***. This pretty well shows malicious intent. School is supposed to be a ...

place of learning, not propaganda or politics. I hope that there weren't any students w/ a Mexican heritage. How horrible and disgusting.

10. I don't like it but they might be trying to keep their jobs.

School admins are getting more and more conservative with each passing day.
They might be trying to make a favorable impression on their superiors.

11. No malicious intent?

What was the intent then? A bunch of White teachers dress up in stereotypical Mexican garb while others dress as the border wall promised by a bigoted president. Explain to me how any of those supposedly educated people thought that this was a good idea done in good fun without intending to hurt a Latino student that might see it.

13. The MAGA written on the wall speaks to their level of bigotry

This crap isn't funny, isn't a teaching moment, and it damn sure reeks of malicious intent!

14. How is insulting your students not malicious intent?

How is being racist not malicious intent?


The people in the photograph are the happy, smiling faces type of racists who don't think they're racists even when they stage a cross burning.

15. They should have just dressed up as SS officers and got it over with.

[Olafjoy]

16. There absolutely was vicious, malicious intent

These racists should not be teaching children. How about dressing up as historical figures or famous authors? Good God! Those people are disgusting and possibly dangerous!!!
