Controversy over cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed hit home in Seattle recently, culminating in a protest outside of southend refugee service provider on Friday.

A group of Somali Americans gathered outside the Refugee Women’s Alliance (ReWA) on Martin Luther King, Jr. Way to demand the resignation of a teacher who showed the cartoons to her teenage students on the day after the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris.

“We’re not gonna be silent when it’s something that’s not right,” said Hassan Aden, who was one of between 15 to 20 people who attended the protest. “We’re trying to show that we’re not happy with what she did.”

The teacher, Deepa Bhandaru, recently earned her Ph.D from the UW Political Science department, and works for ReWA teaching a free class on world affairs for youth, where she showed the cartoons during a lesson on free speech and religious pluralism.

This women, is giving her time for free, in order to help out recent immigrants. This incident happened during a discussion on current events. I truly hope that her superiors ignore the protesters. Especially since they aren't even in her class. How exactly did the teachers violate their religion freedom, when they weren't even there??????????????????? :slap:



The following week, some Somali parents—not the parents of her students—submitted a letter to ReWA, demanding Bhandaru's resignation and claiming that she violated their religious freedom.
