There is a disturbing story out of the San Francisco-Oakland (East Bay) area this week about a teacher who engages in anti-Semitic discourse in his classroom including giving the Nazi salute in front of his students. (No word as to whether he goose-steps into class.)
1oth grade teacher Harry Bens has been suspended by Mt Eden High School in Hayward, California. Bens is apparently a subscriber of a radical group called the Black Hebrew Israelites. They are black folks who claim to be the real Jews. In truth, they are about as anti-Semitic as they come. Bens, who is also black, is reportedly a pastor of a "synagogue" in Alameda, California called Congregation Rehoboth. He also quotes from the rants of Kanye West.

Hopefully, this character will be permanently removed from the classroom.
