It takes some chutzpah for a teacher to stand in front of the world and deliver this kind of speech. Eight minutes of inspirational truth-telling, for which her school administrators attempted to run her out of her job on a rail. They were gathering the feathers, and heating the tar to apply to her insolent uppity backside, when the parents of her students rallied 'round.
Katherine is The Left's nightmare, on both sides of the pond.
She is, well, a she. And, she's strikingly pretty to boot.
She is Oxford-educated, articulate, accomplished, experienced.
She is a person of color.
She has a sense of humor, and knows how to use it.
She abandoned the Marxism of her university days as her experience as a teacher, and her conscience, demonstrated the abject failure of ThePeopleInChargeOfSuchThings and their leftist agenda. She saw children's lives damaged by this ideology, and she decided to speak up.
Within the first thirty seconds, she gets to the point: '...the system is broken, because it keeps poor children poor'. It only gets better from there!
A big-ole heapin' helpin' of Green Shoots Award to this brave woman.
And kudos to Cranmer, for raising unshirted hell about her mistreatment.
