Can that be looked upon unfavorably if a teacher "treats" a student differently by giving him an assignment that was not given to the rest of the class?
You know I am always living on the edge. Thats why I pay my union dues! They respet me enough to do it anyway, so I am not worried about it. I am not trying to change their taste just expand their options. I just want them no know that Beyonce looks good BUT so does Roshumba or Lauryn Hill. We also did a little survey with the Black males teachers they ALL said it doesn't matter to them. When I confronted my students with this info they assured me had another male asked them they would have answered differently.
