Washington Post: 'Benz's apology read like she'd been packed off to reeducation camp'
Washington Post columnist Mark Fisher discusses the uproar over Benz's lament that the kids involved in the January 3 fight were black, and writes that Benz didn't follow the "unwritten rules" about the latest fashions on matters of race.
Says Fisher, "At Churchill, Benz rushed to apologize. 'I did not intend to single out one group of students in a negative light,' she wrote the next morning. 'I value each and every student. . . . Churchill is a safe school. . . . I am sorry that my initial letter caused hurt to members of the Churchill community.' Benz's apology read like she'd been packed off to reeducation camp."
