Canary Mission have released an explosive report on the harassment of Jewish kids and parents in the School District of Philadelphia (SDP), the largest school district in Pennsylvania and the eighth-largest school district in America, serving 118,335 students in grades K-12.
According to the report, there are unparalleled levels of antisemitism and harassment of Jewish students and teachers in Philadelphia’s K-12 schools post October 7, which have actually prompted two Title VI complaints to be filed with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights. And while the antisemitic teachers involved were not identified in the complaints, Canary Mission have done their thing and identified them.
And I’m here to help spread the word.
Keziah Ridgeway
Ridgeway, a SDP social studies teacher, might look happy in the photo, but she seems to have a very nasty and angry side. Among her behaviors exposed by Canary Mission are sharing on her Instagram Story highlights this JVP statement justifying the October 7 terror attack:
and allegedly making online threats against parents of Jewish students.
Hannah Gann
SDP history teacher Hannah Gann’s photo screams out “We’ve got a live one here”, but she seems to prefer her Jews dead, having expressed support for Hamas terrorists in multiple 2024 Instagram posts:
Note how her Instagram name Ms Gann seems to invoke her job as a teacher.
Norman Shaw MacQueen
SDP teacher Norman Shaw MacQueen considers himself somewhat of an expert on antisemitism, despite not being Jewish:
But it seems his only antisemitism expertise is disseminating it, whether it be when he compares us to Neo Nazis:
or engages in a modern day blood libel in accusing us of organ theft:
Andrew Saltz
A dead ringer for comedian Chris Kattan, there is nothing funny about SDP teacher Andrew Saltz basically justifying Hamas’ vile actions just two days after October 7, :
And like Hannah Gann, his social media handle seems to play on him being a teacher
Believe it or not, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Check out the full Canary Mission report to see more disturbing examples, including:
- SDP teachers holding events isolating Jewish students
- The Director of the SDP’s Social Studies curriculum sharing quotes and tropes from notorious antisemites
- SDP teachers retaliating against parents complaining of antisemitism
