...when my teacher first said that, I was pretty surprised. But after mulling over it, I saw the truth in it. I have and have had quite a few teachers who are quite liberal-minded and openly opinionated. This may be because I live in the infamously liberal Bay Area, but you never know.
With more thinking, I realized that teachers were much, much more secretive about their political opinions during the younger grades. I remember my fifth grade refused to tell us who he voted for in the Presidential election. Should teachers openly have a political opinions? Obv, it's not good when a teacher overdoes his or her bias and lets it leak way over into the teaching curriculum, and teachers are most definitely (as is everyone) allowed to have opinions, but to what degree should they reveal that opinion? Are teachers even known for being liberal at all? |
