Breitbart: St. Paul School District To Pay $525K To Teacher Who Criticized Racial Equity Discipline

Aaron Benner, 50, currently an administrator at Cretin-Derham Hall in St. Paul, filed a federal lawsuit in 2017, arguing the district retaliated against him by investigating him four times during the 2014-2015 school year, reported the Star Tribune.

Benner, however, had never been investigated prior to that school year, when he and four other teachers pressed the school board for higher standards of behavior for students and greater consequences for those who are disruptive, regardless of their minority status.

Benner, who is black, said the school district’s discipline policies, based on a desire to reduce racial disparities, had actually failed black students by not teaching them there are consequences for disruptive behavior.

Teacher Rebecca Friedrichs’ organization, For Kids & Country, produced a video in which Benner told his story, specifically about how he felt betrayed by his teacher’s union.

Friedrichs, the author of Standing Up to Goliath: Battling State and National Teachers’ Unions for the Heart and Soul of Our Kids and Country, was the plaintiff in the 2016 Supreme Court case Friedrichs v. California Teachers Association, in which she and another teacher claimed a First Amendment right to withhold financial support from a union whose positions they did not share.

He continued that while he had no problem paying union dues, he was concerned about “racial equity policies that were being implemented to lower the suspensions of African-American students.”…”
