Education, by it's very essence, is always a political act.
People only get riled up when the implicit politics of education conflicts with their personal political views.
Systemic racism, sexism, homophobism etc have brought us to the point where racists, sexists, homophobes etc, bitch and complain whenever their preferred bigotry is called out for the irrational hatred that it is.
This is my lens, as a teacher, when addressing these issues.
