Pflugerville ISD said a teacher who expressed white supremacist views to his students no longer works for the school district. 'Deep down in my heart I’m ethnocentric, which means I think my race is the superior one,' the teacher said in a video.
PfISD said, as of Monday, the teacher who shared racist views with students is no longer employed by the district.
“The teacher in question is no longer employed by Pflugerville ISD and we are actively looking for a replacement,” PfISD Superintendent Douglas Killian said in a statement.that was shared with district officials as well as on social media. The teacher, who is a white man, tells his diverse classroom that “deep down in my heart I’m ethnocentric, which means I think my race is the superior one.”“I think everybody's a racist at that level,” he replied.
Killian also praised the students for challenging the teacher’s racist views. “We always do our best to ensure the safety of all students; we encourage them to be self-advocates and let an adult know when something is wrong, as they did in this situation,” he said.
