A Minneapolis school board has defended its contract that promotes laying off white teachers ahead of those of color to reverse prior racism. Minneapolis Public Schools doubled down on its deal, which states instead of teacher layoffs or relocations being decided based on seniority – as is typical – schools can ignore that protocol and dismiss senior staff members if otherwise a teacher of color would be laid off.It said the new contract is being used to 'remedy the continuing effects of past discrimination.'
