Students complained about antisemitic conspiracy material distributed by a teacher who has alleged embraced extreme ideologies espoused by the Black Hebrew Israelite movement.
According to Vazquez, Bens told students to alternate reading portions of the material out loud, and guided them to highlight specific sections.
. But Ruchita Verma, a senior at Mt. Eden who tutors 10th graders at the school, said she’s heard multiple stories of students believing Bens’ instruction. “We take these allegations very seriously, and the teacher alleged to have made such statements and used inappropriate materials is currently on a leave of absence,” said the district.
Some students also feel something should have been done sooner. Two 10th graders who had complained about Bens were moved to another classroom, but those who remained also began to speak up. They recorded his lectures, took photos of their assignments, and spoke out at school board meetings, urging the district to take action on not justassignment, but other things the teacher said in class. And, they created a Google Form to poll their classmates about their experiences in Bens’ lessons.
