What an unaware, neo-colonist heifer.

Her name is Marta Shaffer, and she works at Oroville High School. She calls herself white, but I doubt it. White-passing, with a name and an attitude like that.

From the original report:

The teacher praised students' academic essays for including "AAVE" language – African-American Vernacular English.

"As an educator I am constantly worried if I'm the problem. What do I mean by that? Well public education is an institution that upholds lots of problematic systems in our society like white supremacy, and misogyny and colonization, etc," she continued. "Well, let's look at how we write essays [where we] start with an introduction that includes a thesis, always cite your sources, use transition words like ‘however’ and ‘therefore.’ These are all made-up rules. They were created by Westerners in power. Which got me thinking, what if I started my school year with a unit honoring how we talk rather than teaching students how to write properly."
