This principle needs to be replaced with one who does not follow the doctrine of Straight Hair Supremacy. All power to tall hair, big hair and long hair.

Two Iowa parents are calling for an educator at Bailey Park Elementary School in Grinnell to be fired for allegedly making racist comments to mixed-race children.
