An email message that Andrea Kane, the superintendent of schools in Queen Anne’s County, sent to parents at the end of the 2019-2020 school year started out unremarkably, listing achievements for the year and the dates of coming events.
Then it pivoted into less familiar terrain, at least on Maryland’s largely conservative Eastern Shore. Kane called for more and better dialogue on racism in the county and voiced support for Black Lives Matter.
Those calls have left Kane, the county’s first Black superintendent, embroiled in controversy and fighting for her job.

These are the kind of people heading the school systems in this country. This idiot is obviously not from the Eastern Shore. You don't pull this kind of crap on most of the Eastern Shore. The people there are farmers, raise chickens for the major chicken producers, Crabbers, and mainly have blue collar jobs, and don't take too kindly to being told how to think.

Just proves everything is now racist. If none exists then make some up. Our education system is nothing more than indoctrination for and from the left.

This is a classic trick, "Absolutely, we should not allow politics in the schools, but my issues are not political issues."

Maryland's Eastern Shore finally began to admit the end of the Civil War in about 1960.
It took the Cheasapeake Bay Bridge and tourists to start the process.
They are about halfway there.
But BLM? Never.

Good. It's about time someone who declares she would promote one race over another is held accountable. Now she'll know how the other half of the country feels. It is crazy that people who hate America can shout it from the mountaintops but those of us who love our country should either whisper it or keep our mouths shut.

Its time somebody starts calling these people out. Fact it, its about time the black communities start showing some respect to the police and start showing some respect to their mothers and the people living in their communities. For being about 14% of the population they are committing about 60% of the violent crimes and about 70% of all murders. The biggest racists in the country are those who call everybody else racists. Wake up and end this B.S. Got it..

A stupidly overlong article that could have been boiled down to three paragraphs. Think what would happen if a white superintendent in a majority black area (I know, that would never happen) encouraged kids to read All Lives or Blue Lives Matter material and attend rallies. Also, doesn't the fact that an 85% white school district hired a black woman as superintendent say that there is no "systemic racism" there?

You have a good point # 1, but a holes like Andrea Kane always assume that the folks you pointed out are racists. It thereby becomes the duty of Kane to implore all those Neanderthals to " get their mind right"

BLM has millions that it has "shaken down" from major companies. BLM has yet to give 1 penney to any black person, company or community. Tell me again how they car about black lives. We are idiots to think they care.

The good people of Queen Anne's County must remember that this ChiDem Superintendent of Schools, overseeing the education and shaping of their children's lives, and endorsing racial division and a communist terrorist organization, Black Lives Matter, is a woman, is black, and is therefore automatically the victim and must not and cannot be held accountable for her views, no matter how anti-American they are.
How dare you bigots in Queen Anne's County demand the removal of this fine, upstanding, and woke abused Superintendetn. You must all belong to the Ku Klux Klan. For Shame!
Who are the idiots who hired this uneducated, ignorant clown?

Until she is literally tarred and feathered and dragged through town to the public stocks to stew for a week it's not enough public outrage in my opinion.
If it was good enough for Tories at the time of the American revolution it will do nicely now. I have ZERO sympathy for these losers.

Calling for better dialogue on racism is fine but BLM has nothing to do with race.

I'm a BIG fan of public humiliation. These woke savages if every color and both sexes need some SERIOUS SHAMING.
Believe me, after a few well attended public shamings the woke crowd will shut their mouths, get jobs and maybe become productive members of society.
Think of the Lanister queen in Game of Thrones....walking through the streets being mocked by American Patriots seems a very good start. The woke savages are going to keep it up and keep pushing folks, you can bet you bottom dollar on it.
SHAME SHAME SHAME!

The Baltimore “sun”?
More like the lefty tattle tale rag.
Someone’s always “embroiled in controversy”
Meaning they want to “spin” the story their way
Haven’t read a lefty commie rag in ages!

He should be fired for supporting an Anti-American Communist front group founded on a demonstrable lie.

She provoked the problem, probably intentionally. BLM trumps all to them. A good administrator of schools does not bring politics into the mix.

Don't feel like you are alone, Andrea. Many people richer than you, smarter than you and more famous than you have acted just as stupidly. Supporting rioters, looters, arsonists and murderers is not the majority opinion and never will be.
If it's any consolation to you, the Executive Committee of US Mensa published a statement equally as stupid.

There is a big difference between promoting racial understanding in the schools and promoting BLM. BLM has admitted to being a Marxist organization and their goal is to overthrow American society and our government. If Kane wants to attend their rallies she is free to do so. Parents have every right to also protest what their kids are being taught. Kane knows better.

She works for the taxpayers of her school district.
When she decided to pull a "Dixie Chicks" and said things she knew would highly offend the people paying her salary, she knew exactly what she was doing!!!
And hopefully she will get to experience the full "Dixie Chicks experience" and know how it feels to be unemployed for her words and actions very soon!!!
