I get to tell you it is NOT normal to eat cats and dogs in anywhere. There are certain people who have the motivation to eat weird stuff, but not the majority. This is like saying it is normal in part of America to have polygamy.

It is not the three teachers that should be fired outright. But the fact that the administration failed in their oversight. It is not just a test that is the problem. Test is on what the teacher taught, material in textbooks. Where did the question come from? Did not the School board vet the education material, go over the lesson plans? Should not the Administration whos responsible of authorizing the education materal also be fired? I think so.

Why is the school not apologizing!!! It’s obvious leadership in the school does not respect the Asian community. No acknowledgement for what happened. Those teachers need to get fired! If the people cannot depend on the educators to be fair and just, then I wouldn’t allow my child to attend this school. unacceptable.

That's not the teachers fault, it's a learning platform called Edhesive and teachers have no control over the questions because the software is pre-purchased

One of the teachers used to teach me still go there but dang that’s crazy

[DashTheBlaze]

I like how they say "in parts of China" as if they specifically knew which local areas in China do those things lol

[sittingaloneinvip]

these teachers need to be fired immediately. this is insanely offensive.

[PureAmericanPatriot]

Wait, these questions were about China...not Asian Americans. These statements CAN'T be accurately described as racist without erroneously believing that China is racially homogenous (and that people like the Uighar don't exist)...which is completely racist against racial minorities in China.

Likewise, the statements at issue were FALSE ideas about China...not true statements. You know, true statements like, say, (1) the CCP/PLA using slave labor in Xinjiang to produce cheap products for American progressives and (2) illegal and immoral sloppy gain-of-function virology in Wuhan which led to one of the biggest gobal health, social, and political issues in modern times.

This is such an ignorant issue to be angry about when far bigger issues face America and the world.

I use stem scopes but my teacher in cfbisd elementary never had racist questions

[eastwestlogistics]

wtf. What do US kids learn at school? No wonder that US performs below average at PISA tests.

Organ harvesting on living people with no anesthesia ... Maybe the Chinese in America could get the word out on what’s going on with Crimea against humanity.. Falon Gong

[christophervillalobos]

For this to be in blaylack makes sence

[ryanmax-grappler]

Correct answer is C. But I do get the point

[naydsoe]

Its true that they eat cats and dogs tho
Whats the prob

[thesonofno]

Not even racists. Not even inappropriate. Living in a world of sensitive minded folks. Pretty soon everything and anything will be, in one way or another, "inappropriate."

[saritayoudliketomeeta]

HAHA! I was correct about the answer without even knowing the options! But why in the heck was the teacher suspended if it is true obscure fact of their culture....? This bs political correctness is getting out of hand. Good Lord..
