From Fox News: A Pennsylvania school district is facing backlash from Jewish parents after a Muslim student club promoting Palestinians passed out keffiyahs to students, featured imagery criticizing Israel, and was more focused on activism than culture, parents say.
“My child came home shaken and unsure of whether it’s even safe to speak up as a Jew at school,” Lynn Simon, a Wissahickon School District parent, told Fox News Digital about last Monday’s event at Wissahickon High School, where student clubs were presenting at an annual culture fair stand that had booths representing various cultures, including a booth from Muslim Students of America chapter.
The district’s superintendent, Dr. Mwenyewe Dawan, can be seen in photos on Instagram, along with assistant superintendent Sean Gardiner. The school’s principal, Dr. Lynne Blair, posted photos of the event on her official school social media account, but has since removed some of the photos.
Upset parents say some of the students were displaying slogans like “Jerusalem is ours,” offering cash prize contests, encouraging administrators and young students to don keffiyehs, and essentially engaging in pro-Palestinian activism on school grounds.
“When the principal is posting pictures of students wearing slogans like ‘Jerusalem is ours,’ and the superintendent is encouraging illegal minor-led games of chance, while visiting & taking photos with politically charged booths dressing students up in keffiyehs, that’s not education—it’s indoctrination. We don’t send our kids to school to be marginalized. We demand accountability, not photo ops.”
