Teacher Fired For Fundraising For The Family of Trayvon Martin!!!

           A teacher in southeastern Michigan has been fired for helping students organize a fundraiser for the family of Trayvon Martin, a Florida teenager shot to death by a neighborhood watch volunteer, a national civil rights group said.  Brooke Harris was dismissed in March from Pontiac Academy for Excellence Middle School "with little explanation" after she encouraged students to plan a wear-a-hoodie-to-school day in memory of Martin, theSouthern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) in Montgomery,Ala., said Monday. Martin was wearing a hoodie Feb. 26 when he was killed.

          Harris gave the students an editorial-writing assignment on the shooting. But the students wanted to help Martin's family and asked the school's administrators if they could pay $1 each to wear hoodies instead of school uniform for a day, the group said. It said the school regularly has fundraisers in which students can "dress down." Harris then was fired for showing up at the school during her suspension, the group said. It said Harris had gone to the school to drop off prizes for a literacy fair she helped organize for students.


Reflection: This Article shows the injustice of our corrupt society were when you try to do is right everyone put you down. I feel that the teacher did nothing wrong and just was trying to do the right thing.
Its ok every dog has their day.


Should the teacher have been fired?
