Somers School District superintendent shuts down lesson on racism after parents’ complaints--Nov 02, 2022, 8:11pmUpdated 7h ago By: News 12 Staff

A superintendent shut down a lesson on racism in a 10th-grade English class after getting complaints from parents. A teacher at Somers High School was teaching using the book, “Me and White Supremacy,” by Layla Saad. It’s a workbook that encourages people who have white privilege to journal about their views on racism.

 
News 12 was told some students messaged their parents about the lesson and then parents contacted the Somers School District superintendent, who stopped the class mid-lesson. The superintendent says he agrees the lesson was inappropriate.
