It would be like a trans zombie apocalypse, don’t let the left wingers know about this. They’ll try to make your children eat zombie cicadas at school.

Turns out you haven't heard them because of racism...... SMH.

When students ask why they haven’t seen cicadas, we need to talk about environmental racism

Laws targeting critical race theory shouldn’t keep teachers from giving children an honest answer.

When students ask me why they haven’t seen or heard the cicadas, I want to answer truthfully and completely. That means discussing the history of racial segregation in our city and the lasting effects of environmental injustice.
