It ain’t just New York. Social Justice superseded education a long time ago in far too many government school systems.
Three white female executives in the New York Education Department were demoted in favor of less-qualified people of color, a $90 million suit launched by the women claims.
The longtime officials say they were unfairly targeted as part of the department’s crusade against ‘toxic whiteness’ through its controversial racial equity plan.
Lois Herrera started at the DOE in 1986 as a guidance counselor and worked her way up to lead its Office of Safety and Youth Development.

Racist liberals.
As a former teacher, who spent 20 years in teacher lounges, there are a lot of racist teachers, both white and minority.
But the educational system is racist as a whole, most done by liberals. Refusal to support school choice, vouchers, charter schools and teacher’s unions are all example of liberal racism.
Wow, Mar. Did you ever spot any non-liberal racism?
“Wow, Mar. Did you ever spot any non-liberal racism?”
In education, the vast majority of racism is done by liberals. The liberals are just too stupid to believe they are racist.
But yes, there are conservatives who are racist and they are no better than liberal racists.
“In education, the vast majority of racism is done by liberals”.
Is that your personal opinion, or is that claim backed up by facts?
Oh Nord,
Facts. Look at how liberals sort everything by race.
Racists.
Perhaps you could provide those facts rather than just your biased personal opinion.
