The controversy over a viral interaction between a Native American and a Kentucky high school student in Washington led to a controversy at a St. Louis-area high school.

A teacher at St. John Vianney High School has resigned because of a tweet harshly criticizing the boys in the video, who had come from a pro-life march and were accused of harassing and mocking participants of the Indigenous Peoples March in Washington D.C. in January.

Dawn Finley taught English at Vianney for nearly six years but stepped down from her job after she retweeted someone else’s politically-charged thoughts about the happenings at the march.[…]

Ironically, her students say she taught them about media bias.

“She educated the entire student body over what kind of signs to avoid and the kind of bias to keep in mind when you search the web and engage in political discussions on social media,” said senior Ian Esteban

Finley did provide a statement since her resignation became public.

She said:

“I resigned because I care about my students more than myself. I would move mountains for them all. They feed my soul and watching them learn and grow is my greatest accomplishment.”

Vianney High School officials say a search for an English teacher replacement will begin immediately.
