(September 6, 2024 / JNS) — A Philadelphia public school teacher with a history of anti-Israel statements made online threats against parents of Jewish students, according to a complaint that the Deborah Project filed, on behalf of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia, with the School District of Philadelphia.

Keziah Ridgeway, who teaches at Northeast High School, is accused of naming previously-anonymous School District of Philadelphia Jewish Family Association leaders on social media and “fulminating that they had disobeyed her demand that they cease protesting against her antisemitism,” per the Deborah Project.

The teacher allegedly suggested online that gun owners should target Jews, per a complaint filed with the Philadelphia school district.{ai:summary}<p>A Philadelphia teacher, Keziah Ridgeway, faces allegations for making online threats towards Jewish parents and criticizing their opposition to her anti-Israel statements.
