Sixth-Grade Teacher Suspended After ‘Absurd’ Lesson on Michael Brown Shooting

An Alabama sixth-grade teacher has been suspended after she reportedly instructed students to reenact the Ferguson shooting in class, according to the Selma Times-Journal.

A parent posted on a community Facebook page that her son came home from Brantley Elementary School and said the teacher “made them reenact” the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown, and that “the white students had to play the police officer.”
