Kentucky teacher suspended for allowing KKK costume in class.
A middle school teacher in Kentucky has been suspended after allowing a student to dress as Nathan Bedford Forrest, the first Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, for an extra credit history assignment. The incident sparked outrage after a video of the student wearing the KKK outfit on a school bus was shared on TikTok. The teacher, who has not been named, has been reported to the state's Educational Professional Standards Board. The student will not face disciplinary action as they were given permission to wear the costume. The incident has led to calls for compulsory sensitivity training for all students.
