All Of The Above Podcast

This Week: As schools all over CA moved back to some version of in-person instruction, Manuel and Jeff take on a fascinating and troubling story out of Florida where a teacher was suspended after protesting the removal of a Black Lives Matter flag displayed in her classroom. Amy Donofrio, being represented by the Southern Poverty Law Center, is a teacher at Robert E. Lee high school in Jacksonville, Florida. Ms Donofrio is forcing a showdown about one of the stickiest issues to come out of the national racial reckoning. What rights to "political" speech do teachers have at work? And how far will district and state leaders - who’ve issued countless statements against systemic racism - go to push back against the white supremacist backlash?
