A Florida teacher who was accused of having White students in his classroom bow to Black students is on leave. Ethan Hooper, a middle school teacher in Orlando, posted the videos to his personal social media which went viral after being shared by the popular right-wing account Libs of TikTok.
One of the videos Hooper posted showed White students acting like servants to Black students in the class in honor of Black History Month. White students were shown in the video fanning and feeding Black students.
"It was in good fun. There was no political agenda behind it," the teacher said. He said the video was being "maliciously used."

If it had been the other way around, would they still say it was being "maliciously used?"
LOL... you know better than that.

Even if this guy was -that- naive and honestly thought what he was doing was right and there was nothing malicious or political about it (which is the very definition of black history month, political and malicious), then he should be fired for being so stupid, clueless, naive, and oblivious.
But, no, he's just a liar who knew exactly what he was doing.

Personally I have no problem with the acting out. At the same time in today's heated political world doing it was a rather stupid act by a public school teacher. The need to privately, hah, interview the students who took part in the "acting out" felt. If everybody took it as a joke to feel how it felt to be a servant perhaps it should just be ignored other than to warn the teacher not to act out such scenes. Also if it was part of a history class, although I went to school in Florida thru High School, and we learned about slavery in school when studying the time period without any acting out.

Look at the guy, now what does common sense tell you? I would say he took advantage of his students for political purposes, and thus should no longer be employed as a public school teacher. In reality back in the old South during the slave era, slaves were very expensive to purchase and maintain. I don’t think this guy could find a legitimate photograph of a slave bowing to a slave owner.

If the bowing down by white students was voluntary, that's one thing, but if a passing grade depended on the students bowing, the guy should be fired. I know I wouldn't have bowed down - even in high school - unless I was in some way threatened.

We got way too much indoctrination in middle school yet nothing as insidious as this. And they wonder why there is still racial hatred? I can only hope I would have left the room while spouting racial slurs, and maybe deck the teacher.

At first, I did not believe this, but there are videos.
He did it in honor of Black History Month.
Sir, you dishonored Black History Month.
Perhaps, to him, Black History Month is nothing more than Get Back at Whitey Month.
I believe him when he says it wasn't politically motivated.
It was racially motivated.

I'll bet it's *paid* leave. And no real repercussions will happen to him. "Social Justice" is a euphemism and rationale for "injustice."

This is the type of teachers being turned out by university schools of miseducation. It is past time to abolish these dens of communism. They are a disease on the body politic. Every state in the nation requires a teacher to have certification after completing classes in schools of miseducation. It is a self-perpetuating evil.

When are people going to stop sending their kids to these monsters? Surely parents could get creative and put homeschool co-ops together if they can't afford to do the homeschooling themselves. We are losing our kids to the indoctrination machine and it really hurts to see this.

Maybe mothers of home schooled kids should be put in charge of educating the kids and do away with the college/university 'educated' people.

Orlando is to Florida what Austin is to Texas (but without the great food). Waaay too many yankees have taken up residence there. Sane Floridians avoid Orlando like the plague.

With all this inappropriate and general bogus or non educational matter being taught in the public schools to children by far out leftist and socialist teachers these days, every public school classroom should have a video camera and system that concerned or any parents can dial into and see just what is being taught to their children.

There was no political agenda behind it...
Yeah, lets flip that script and have black students bowing to white students and having to serve them. There would be arson and looting, as blacks (led by their "leaders") would be rioting in the streets!!!
If that guy truly believes that, he is far too stupid to be teaching anyone. And if he doesn't believe that, he is far too evil to be teaching anyone. Common thread, he needs to be fired and never hired to be a teacher again!!!!!

It all being "in good fun" is exactly what a perp would say after getting caught. He meant this to be demeaning and should be fired.
