This is straight up racism. Not to mention the continued deterioration of the education your children are getting. Flee government schools.
So much for white privilege. ABC: An agreement struck between a Minneapolis teachers union and Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) now compels the district – in the case of any layoffs – to get rid of white teachers before any teachers of color. The stipulation comes as part of a recent collective bargaining agreement between the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers (MFT) and MPS, which ended a two-week-long teachers’ strike. Among numerous provisions that were agreed upon between the two groups was a restructuring of the district’s recruiting and retainment of educators of color. Effective in the Spring of 2023, teachers will be subject to job layoffs or relocations in order of seniority (ABC). Fox News: According to the agreement, the purpose of the policies is to solve for “past discrimination” by the district, which the agreement said “disproportionately impacted the hiring of underrepresented teachers in the District, as compared to the relevant labor market and the community, and resulted in a lack of diversity of teachers” (Fox News).
Minnesota Public Schools Changes Rules To Lay Off White Teachers Before Minorities
Policy ‘openly discriminates against white teachers based only on the color of their skin,’ lawyer says

Minnesota Public Schools reached an agreement with its teachers’ union to institute a policy that will discriminate against white teachers during layoffs, according to a report from Alpha News.
The agreement, which the union reached in March following a two-week strike, upends the seniority-based layoff system under which teachers who have been employed the least amount of time are the first to be fired. Under the new rules, if a minority teacher is set to be laid off, the district will instead fire the next least senior teacher who is white
“If [laying off] a teacher who is a member of a population underrepresented among licensed teachers in the site, the district shall excess the next least senior teacher, who is not a member of an underrepresented population,” reads the agreement, which goes into effect next spring.
The justification for the racial discrimination is to “remedy the continuing effects of past discrimination,” according to the school district.
Minnesota Public Schools’ policy is the latest example of teachers’ efforts to institute policies favoring minority teachers in hiring and compensation in order to achieve racial equity. Staff at New York City’s elite Dalton School in 2020 demanded the administration pay off black faculty’s student debt, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
