• https://www.dailymail.co, By MARLENE LENTHANGA Los Angeles English teacher was forced to flee her home after receiving numerous death threats for wearing an 'I Can't Breathe' T-shirt during one of her virtual class sessions.
The teacher at El Camino Real High School in Woodland Hills, California wore the shirt in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and included instruction about racial injustice in her teaching, which the school allowed.
But a parent upset with her class allegedly shared a photo of the teacher on social media along with her e-mail address and invitations to harass her.
She was bombarded with threats last week that forced her to leave her home with her daughter in fear of their lives.
Protests and rallies in support of the teacher unfolded outside the school last week.
'I can't afford to go to a hotel and I can't go home. My daughter's a ninth-grader starting at this school. We can't stay in our home,' the teacher said to CBS Los Angeles.
Scott Blodgett is one of the parents upset with the teacher's curriculum that covers the civil unrest unfolding across the country.
'I just want my daughter to go to English class and learn about English,' Blodgett said.
