Catholic High School Teacher Forced Out over Flag

Matthew Rothschild in his "McCarthyism Watch" column in The Progressive reports on the firing of Stephen Kobasa from his job teaching English at Kolbe Cathedral High School in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
Kobasa does not believe there should be an American flag in his classroom.

The diocese disagreed, believing there should be an American flag in the classroom, and that it was their classroom, not his.
