Surrey teacher Annie Ohana is no stranger to online and in-person harassment for her progressive teaching practices, but in recent days the educator has reached out for support as calls for her to be fired are mounting.
With quotes about racial justice, decolonization, capitalism, queer acceptance and more on social issues, the environment created in her classroom has been a recent target on X ; in particular, by a former high-school teacher in Ontario. Chanel Pfahl’s goal, according to her X profile, is calling out “wokism” in schools across the country.
In response to a request for comment from Black Press, Pfahl doubled down on her original post calling for Ohana to be fired. “In fact, despite the fact that I profoundly disagree with her worldview, and think her teaching through an equity/intersectional lens is very inappropriate, I respect the fact that she’s willing to engage/stand for what she believes,” she continues.
The teacher doesn’t feel as though she is being “exposed,” since she is the first to share pictures and events she holds and attends to do with social justice, she said.
