two Chicago-based professors were caught gushing about teaching social justice in the classroom during a school board meeting held via Zoom in February.
Roosevelt University Professors Ralph Martire and Gina Harris, who also serve on the Oak Park and River Forest High School school board,
discussed using social justice to "organize society," as local publication West Cook News first reported this week.
]Harris told Martire during the recorded meeting after he inquired about her new position at the university -- an adjunct professor of "Educator Preparation,
specializing in racial equity and middle school teaching," according to her LinkedIn profile.
I mean, really, I'm living the life over here," she added.
Martire said he "always flip[s] out at kids" who take his "
master's class on fiscal policy and public budgets."
"The first three or four classes are devoted to philosophy of social justice and how you organize society," he explained to Harris.
"We don't talk about one, you know, budgetary item. They're like, 'Oh, man. Professor Martire, this is a really weird way to teach a budget.'"
