Student artwork on display at a Virginia campus has sparked an anti-Semitism row following complaints from a local rabbi and a Republican lobby group.
The 17-year-old creator’s teacher, Justyne Fischer, replied to the rabbi’s email of concern by stressing the student had been using her “freedom of artistic expression.” The rabbi accused the drawing of containing “bigotry and anti-Semitism.” The educator strongly disagreed. “My student is using her freedom of artistic expression to respond to a president who calls Mexicans ‘rapists,’ African countries ‘shit hole countries’ and white supremacists ‘very fine people.’ She chose to create a portfolio of eight works which are anti-stereotype.”
"We will request that the event organizers consider making changes in how student artwork is displayed during the exhibition and include the artist’s statement along with the artwork."
Teacher should be fired and student expelled!
