Jeremy Cronk on Resigning from Harper Creek High School Over "Kindness" Flag
Wednesday Sep 11, 2024
Wednesday Sep 11, 2024
We are joined by educator Jeremy Cronk, who recently resigned from Harper Creek High School.
The administration recently ordered Jeremy to remove a flag from his classroom that read "Science is Real, Black Lives Matter, No Human is Illegal, Love is Love, Women's Rights are Human Rights, Kindness is Everything" because they perceived it to be "partisan messaging." Jeremy refused and subsequently resigned.
We discuss the circumstances around his resignation and what is says about the current culture, aversion to controversy from administrators, and the importance of educators standing up for their students.
