Listen "SUSPENDED! High school teacher Matthew Hawn"
Episode Synopsis
Sullivan County, Tennessee school officials do not like for their students to hear about White Privilege -- unless an opposing view is presented. They suspended teacher Matthew Hawn for sharing a profane poem about white privilege on video by Black poet Kyla Jenée Lacey in a high school class on "Contemporary Issues." One wonders what the opposing view that there is white privilege would be. What happens now? Will he be reinstated? Hear his story in this interview, aired on WEHC in September 2021.
