'I try to undermine that BS in my classroom': English teacher claims teaching kids 'how to write properly' is rooted in white supremacy

A California English teacher recently posted several controversial videos on social media claiming that teaching children "how to write properly" is rooted in white supremacy and vowed to begin the school year with a different approach to teaching linguistics, Fox News Digital reported.
 

Marta Shaffer, an English teacher at Oroville High School in northern California, posted videos to TikTok claiming that white supremacy culture "runs deep" in public schools.

"What do I mean by that?" Shaffer stated. "Well, let's look at how we write essays: Start with an introduction that includes a thesis; always cite your sources; use transition words like 'however' and 'therefore.' They are all made-up rules. They're arbitrary. They were created by Westerners in power."
