This is an excellent reminder that the anti-Israel mob tries to take over every cause and make it all about them.
The New York Post reports:
Radical NYC teachers’ group plans ‘Teach-In for Palestine’ on MLK dayA group of radical New York City teachers is planning a “Teach-In for Palestine” on Martin Luther King Jr. Day for students as young as 6.The event, the first in a six-part series hosted by NYC Educators for Palestine, is advertised to students aged 6-18 — promising food and “age-conscious lessons . . . delivered by trained educators and mental health professionals.”The chosen start date of Jan. 19 is ironic, given that MLK was a staunch supporter of the Jewish state.The instructors will “facilitate a program in which students begin to grapple with the history, meaning and context of zionism,” the event’s online sign-up reads, with “Zionism” deliberately not capitalized.The group has not yet revealed a location for the “Teach In,” which was first flagged by the North American Values Institute, but similar events in the past have been held at The People’s Forum or Brooklyn Museum, a source told The Post.“These teach-Ins are just an attempt to indoctrinate young people into Jew hate. They wine and dine them with free pizza and then they give them literature on blood libels and supporting Hamas,” NYC Public School Alliance President Karen Feldman told The Post.“What’s really concerning is that there’s educators in New York City that are promoting curriculum that is antisemitic that could lead to hatred of their Jewish students. How can anyone feel safe when children as young as 6 are being indoctrinated?” United Jewish Teachers President Moshe Spern told The Post.Socialist Mayor Mamdani, who is opposed to the Jewish state, promoted a protest organized by the group on his personal Instagram in December 2023.The radical teachers’ group has previously organized school walkouts to protest Israel. In May, some 350 students gathered outside the DOE headquarters to rally for a cease-fire in Gaza.
