Mo Green
-- the Democratic nominee North Carolina State Superintendent of Public Instruction,
-- held a news conference Thursday at his party’s headquarters in Raleigh,
where he drew contrasts between himself and his Republican opponent,
-- Michele Morrow, who has suggested that
-- former President Barack Obama and other prominent Democrats be executed on television.
Democratic Party chairwoman Anderson Clayton said that Morrow’s remarks about executing Democratic leaders are “terrifying” and must not be tolerated.
Green, a former superintendent of Guilford County Schools,
noted that district’s academic gains under his leadership.
He said North Carolina is in a fight for the “soul of public education.”
“My opponent didn’t send her children to North Carolina’s public schools
and now she is encouraging others to do the same,”
Green said, referring to Morrow, who homeschools her children.
“She calls them indoctrination centers and would defund them by sending taxpayer dollars to unaccountable private schools.”
Morrow has called for abolishing the State Board of Education
and refers to Democrats as “communist sympathizers.”
She has said that Muslims should be banned from public office
and embraces conspiracy theories, including those promoted by QAnon
We can’t have someone running our public schools -- and its $11 billion budget -- who actively targets and attacks public education, public educators and those who support our public schools
