Union Accuses Black School Choice Group of Klan Sympathies
It's possible the union officials are overlooking some important details
A major state-level teachers union accused a group promoting school choice for African-American families of supporting the notorious white supremacist group the Ku Klux Klan in a series of statements on Thursday.
The Louisiana Federation of Teachers accused the Louisiana Black Alliance for Educational Options (BAEO) of advancing a "pro-KKK agenda," in the words of one tweet sent from the union's official Twitter account. Another claimed that the group "endorses teaching that the KKK is good."

There must be some lower level which the sleazy teachers' unions won't approach, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how far down in the septic tank that might be.
Every time I guess, I'm proved wrong.
