Nebraska teacher placed on leave after comparing anti-maskers to KKK – By Paul Sacca (The Blaze) / Aug 26 2021
A Nebraska schoolteacher was placed on administrative leave after she shared a social media post comparing anti-maskers to the Ku Klux Klan.
The Elkhorn Public School District announced on Tuesday that an unnamed elementary teacher was placed on leave for an unspecified amount of time after posting an illustration comparing people who are against masks with members of the KKK. The image said, “Isn’t it strange they can breathe in this” next to a klansman hood and then a face mask with the words “but not this,” WOWT reported.
