An Illinois middle school is unjustly under fire for a teacher’s decision to use swastikas in a language arts class.

Speaking to Fox 43, Woodland Middle School parent Kelly Masterton complained about the horror of her eighth-grade son being able to draw swastikas on an assignment. The assignment instructed students to draw a cartoon for younger students that would explain the basic concern of appeasement as it pertained to Hitler’s rise to power.
