NYC teacher admits she advises students on how and who to ‘throw bricks’ at in protest, undercover video shows

There’s little argument that the radical left in America have their handprints all over public education, doing their part to turn out an entire generation that shares their anti-American, neo-Marxist views.

The latest example of this is seen in New York City, where a middle school teacher was captured on video admitting that she advises teen students to engage in violence against those who stand in the way of her political agenda.

Project Veritas identified the English teacher as Ariane Franco in an undercover video shared this week.

“This is what I told my students,” Franco said in the footage. “I was like, ‘Guys, there’s strategic ways to do this [protest].’ You want to…I brought up [a] crazy organization that have done this. Like, they chose which places to throw bricks in. They chose — and they didn’t do it in their own neighborhood…They didn’t do it to black and brown communities. Doing it to our own community does not make sense.”

And she’s clear about the bricks being thrown at people.

“You got to go after the people who it’s not directly affecting…Throw it [brick] at the people that are actually doing the things that [need to] change,” the teacher said.

Franco also made it clear that there is no respect for the American flag in her classroom.

“I tell them — my kids — we don’t stand up for the Pledge. We do the Pledge of Allegiance every morning, you know, but we keep going on our business. It was a class decision at the beginning of the school year: ‘They’re not talking about me, so I’m not standing up,’ you know?”

The teacher also talked about altering the words in the Pledge to meet her divisive political view.

“At one point, when I first started challenging it [the Pledge of Allegiance], I had my kids change the words…It was something like — I think we added at the end, ‘And we will fight for those who this does not address,’ or something like that,” Franco said. “We added to [it] because it’s like, ‘And liberty and justice for all, and we will fight until that is true.’”

She also said that the class, including her, “would kneel” during the reciting of the Pledge.

It’s safe to suggest that there’s little chance students in her classroom emerge with any sense of respect or loyalty to their county. Instead, they are more likely to affiliate with those on the left fully committed to the currency of victimhood.

Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story from Twitter:
