Education hit an all-time low point last month when a teacher suggested a student be lynched for his boy behavior.
The media outcry was over the obvious racial implication. But everyone apparently missed the fact that this was a boy.
Worse, there was no outcry among educators. And missed was the fact that virtually all boys experience similar rants, rages, epithets, psychologically damaging and false statements from their teachers. The teacher should be ashamed, but more importantly all of education should be ashamed that nothing, absolutely nothing, was or is being done to prevent this kind of verbal abuse and punishment of boys.
