Former 'canceled' teacher: I wanted to give my students an opportunity to see someone challenge the orthodoxy

After getting ousted from a private school for pushing back against a “woke curriculum,” a former education” target=”_blank”>teacher<” he just wanted his students to get a chance to see someone ‘challenge the orthodoxy.’

“When I spoke out at my school, I wanted to give my students a chance to see a teacher, an authority figure challenge the orthodox, these beliefs that were being presented as knowledge,” Paul Rossi said Friday.

Rossi, who taught math at the institution, believes one of the reasons he was a target to be canceled was because his teaching style was “effective.” 

“What I think is important is for the children today that are experiencing this in the classrooms to realize that, you know, the teacher doesn’t have the right to tell you who you are. Your identity is sacred and it belongs to you, and you should feel comfortable with your parents’ support to tell the teacher… my identity is none of your business.”
