According to Fox 6 News, Jan Zehren, a middle school PE teacher for 36 years, separated her seventh-grade gym class at Shorewood Intermediate School into groups based on their race and asked them to research games from their cultures. Apparently, Miss Zehren was satisfied when the white children came up with “Hide and Go Unseason” but it was the directive for black students to create American Gladiators: Plantation Edition that shocked the students.

=======================

Alexis Averette, 7th Grader, 12 years old, expressed specifics to Gym Teacher as to her "discomfort".

Her father, Yuri Averette, our Guest, share his displeasure. They included 3 demands. They are:

1. An Apology by the Gym Teacher to his daughter, his family, other students, other parents, as well as the entire school.

2. Give video that Gym Teacher took of his daughter participating in class to him.

3. Permanent removal of Gym Teacher - Ms. Jan Zehren.

Alexis

“Ms. Zehren forced me and my partner to reenact slavery in front of the entire class,” seventh-grade student Alexis Averette said in the report. “When we told her we were uncomfortable she told us we still had to do it.” She said as other students were demonstrating the game of dodgeball, she and her partner were “uncomfortable” when it came time to demonstrate a game rooted in slavery.

=======================

Monday's dialogue included Mr. CC – Charles Carmickle, Sound Engineer & Resident Commentator of Public Policy w/Mary Glass & Company.

In fact, he shared with me and the audience the “age-old” Caucasian game of murder called "PIC-NIC".

Take a listen.
