Trump Lesson Plan Created By San Francisco Teacher Fakhra Shah Says President-Elect Won Due To His ‘Racist And Sexist Base’

San Francisco school teacher Fakhra Shah created a Donald Trump lesson plan that says the Republican won by appealing to racist and sexist voters. The union, which represents the school district where 57,000 students attend, posted the entire curriculum on its website.

“Let us please not sidestep the fact that a racist and sexist man has become the president of our country by pandering to a huge racist and sexist base,” the Trump lesson plan says, according to a Daily Mail report.

Fakhra Shah, a teacher at Mission High School, said she did not envision her Trump lesson plan being circulated throughout the entire school district. According to the teacher, her union decided to share the curriculum. The union represents about 6,000 teachers.

“Educators are entrusted to create lessons that reflect the California standards, support students’ social and emotional well-being and foster inclusive and safe school communities,” San Francisco School District representative Gentle Blythe said.

According to Blythe, the President-elect Donald Trump lesson plan is an optional resource and not part of the official school curriculum. While the lesson plan might be optional for teachers to use, it is not clear if the assignments and lectures are optional for students to attend. Blythe also noted that the schools in San Francisco serve a diverse population of students, and the teachers are encouraged to provide multiple perspectives in their daily lesson plans.

Fakhra Shah said she wrote the Trump lesson plan at about 2 a.m. on November 9 — just a few hours after the presidential election results rolled in. Shah said she wanted to aid teachers at her school who were struggling with how best to answer questions from students about what would happen if the Republican won the race.

It is not clear how many San Francisco teachers have decided to use the Donald Trump lesson plan. The resource material reportedly urged teachers to allow their students to voice concerns about life during Trump’s presidency. The curriculum also informs students they can “keep fighting” what Shah deems “oppression.”

“I think a lot of people were lost for words, wondering, ‘What do we say? What do we do? We’re calling him out,” Shah continued. “If he’s our president, I have the right to hold him accountable and ask him to take a stance that is anti-hate and anti-racist.”

The Mission High School teacher said the students need to realize they can still “uplift” themselves at school even though what happens in the rest of America is out of their control. In the lesson plan, Shah warned her educator peers the students might use “inappropriate words” to describe their emotions.

“You would too if you have suffered under the constructs of white supremacy or experienced sexism, or any isms or lack of privilege,” Shah states in the lesson plan.

The local Republican Party quickly responded to the Donald Trump lesson plan.

“It’s inappropriate on every level,” said the Republican National Committee representative from California, Harmeet Dhillon.

She also called the Trump lesson plan “inappropriate propaganda” that “unfairly demonizes” not just the president-elect, but the tens of millions of Americans who voted for him.

“It’s boiling down the election in which 60 million people voted for this man to become president into two words: racism and sexism,” Dhillon said during an interview with CBS San Francisco. “That’s very misleading. It’s just like propaganda. It’s garbage.”

During an interview with NBC San Francisco Fakhra Shah said she and her fellow teachers are not trying to “brainwash” any of the students. According to Shah, the Trump lesson plan was created to spark “dialogue.”

“Tell them: We do not have to go anywhere, not Canada, not ‘back’ to any place we came from. We also do not have to give in to brutality, police or otherwise, verbal or physical. Ever,” the Trump lesson plan says.

Even students who support Donald Trump are welcome in Shah’s class, she said. The students will be given a “safe space” to speak when asked to explain how the president-elect is not a racist.
