This is NOT okay. Our class did a project after reading the book V for Vendetta. This book talks about an antihero named V tearing down the government for racism, sexism, and homophobia. All of which can be pinpointed to a few things happening currently in our world. Our teacher,
Mrs O’Connor provided us with a poster board and had us associate it to real world things. We were allowed to choose anything from womens rights to religion, police brutality, and racism. Most of her classes decided to link the book to the Black Lives Matter movement, as you can
see in the videos and images provided. Upon which she was pulled from our classroom by the schools security and was told it was offensive and that our research was false despite credited resources on each and every poster on the lockers. They insisted that it’s not all cops 
(Obviously!) and that by spreading the word of this it was teaching our students wrongly. She is now (rumoredly) at a threat to potentially lose her job for allowing us to write on such topics. Keep in mind they also spewed information about All Lives Matter in defense and tried
to talk on Blue lives and insisted they were not in any way racist. We are now trying, as students of Muncie Central Highschool, to defend not only ourselves but our peers and continue to make this a safe space to express ourselves and our views. Black lives matter and always
will, and we should be allowed to express our opinions. We are protected under the first amendment and choose to continue to speak up.
There’s a new update out if any of you would like to read on it! Thank you so much for the attention this has received
