Alan Barron Suspended for Teaching about Jim Crow and Blackface Musicals



 Jim Crow and Blackface in Munroe Mean Suspension
The PC wave that engulfs us in all aspects of our lives
Is growing stronger making rational discussion of issues hard to survive
At Munroe Middle School a teacher about as non racist as one could be
Is teaching 8th grade history about the effects of Jim Crow and is “lynched” from the PC tree.
So a teacher, Alan Barron, shows a video about white singers with faces black
Here's a news flash, Al Jolson performing in blackface is a historical fact
Al Jolson, a Lithuanian Jew, was one of the first to discrimination on Broadway fight
One of the best teachers about to retire now on paid leave, a victim of the "racist" PC bite
You cannot avoid the lessons of history if history somehow must be changed to be PC correct
Monroe Middle School near Detroit needs to chill out and reflect
You cannot the cause of nondiscrimination advance
If history must be ignored or coated in PC rants
If this teacher Barron had taught a class about Shakespeare
Showing that on stage even for Juliet only men could appear
Would he be suspended to a NOW protest prevented?
The PC assault on history in Monroe needs to be relented!
