All Hail The New School Board Chair?

CBS/WFOR MIAMI gives this write up on Ann Murray being elected as Chair of the School Board of Broward County:

“It’s a changing of the guard at the Broward County School Board where members have elected a new Chair and Vice Chair. The new Chairwoman is Ann Murray who represents District 1. Murray began her career with the Broward County Public Schools in 1970 where she worked her way through the ranks in the Transportation Department. She also served as a Broward Teachers Union Shop Steward and Federation of Public Employees Shop Steward. Elected to the School Board in 2008, Murray currently serves on the Board of Directors, Broward Regional Health Planning Council, City of Hollywood General Obligation Bond Oversight Committee and the Broward Democratic Executive Committee.”

Gosh, not even a mention of Ann’s checkered past where she hurled racial epithets? Did Ann’s admission to using racial epithets factor into the Board’s vote?

Or will they hide behind the “she-was-next-in-line-for this-largely-ceremonial-post” excuse? What the hell are the students and parents of Broward County supposed to think?

Cowards.
