In yet another stunning (but not surprising) display of gutless deference to the party's most extreme outliers, the Fort Worth ISD Board of Directors and our most MAGA SBOE officials have taken a fanatic's racist, xenophobic, and Islamophobic tweets and actioned on them less than a day after he hit send.
On May 25, Twitter "influencer" Carlos Turcios shared these screen shots of Ms. Alzubi's social media profile and used them as evidence to say she was unfit for the job. The next day, SBOE members had "called for an investigation" and the FWISD Board of Directors had "reassigned" her.
This is absolutely outrageous and cannot be tolerated. Ms. Alzubi is a longtime educator and truly every single student and teacher who knows her has professed glowing praise. The school would have been lucky to have had her at its helm, and moving her from the position is a disservice to her incredible experience and dedication, and to her students.
Let's be clear. These apparently outrageous screen shots detail a woman who is concerned about the welfare and safety of her community, about limiting the spread of a deadly disease which killed over a million Americans, and about gently helping educate a county which deeply needs to better understand and get away from dangerous false rhetoric.
Unfortunately, as Greg Abbott has led us into an unmitigated power grab when it comes to our largest school districts in Texas, the only way to undo this travesty is to vote the current Governor out of office. He controls the Commissioner of the Texas Education Agency, which takes over and destroys public schools at the beck and call of Abbott's billionaire donors. He controls what happens to experienced educators like Shayma Alzubi. He controls what happens to our kids.
For Ms. Alzubi, please, please vote on November 3rd for every Democrat on that ballot.
This is unacceptable.
