Teachers at a Maine elementary school encouraged fifth grade students to participate in race-based activism, including a school-organized Black Lives Matter march.
In a video posted on the school's Facebook page, almost all the school's students can be seen marching and shouting "Black Lives Matter" at the behest of adults guiding them. Kendall Tietz is a Production Assistant with Fox News Digital.
"There are many moments as an educator/leader when you are humbled by the students and staff you work with. Friday was one of those moments," PES's post said, which PDE attributes to the school's principal. "I was waiting at the green light on the corner of Washington and Preusmpscot behind a car. We were waiting to turn left when most of our school held up traffic as they marched chanting Black Lives Matter. It was incredible."
A fifth grade teacher who helped organize the march explained in the lead up to the event that students would take part in the march on February 28 to celebrate the end of Black History Month.
