- A teacher in California who identifies as “cringey” is going viral after claiming she does not teach grammar usage and writing skills in an attempt to defeat white supremacy.
- Marta Shaffer teaches English at Oroville High School and uses linguistics to fight “white supremacy in my classes” and be “inclusive of all kinds of ways we use the language,” she said.
- The expectation that students should use syntax and proper grammar is based in a deep-rooted white supremacy culture, she argues, according to a report.
