The Virginia PTA forced the resignation of Vice President of Training Michelle Leete on Saturday after she gave a speech saying “Let them die,” referring to people against her leftist ideology. Fairfax NAACP still supports Leete, who is their 1st Vice President.
Michelle Leete spoke to concerned parents and supporters of Critical Race Theory Thursday prior to a Fairfax county public school board meeting at Luther Jackson Middle School in Falls Church, Virginia.
Breitbart News reported Friday Leete told supporters of CRT:
So let’s meet and remain steadfast, steadfast, in speaking truth, tearing down double standards, and refuting double talk. Let’s not allow any double downing on lies. Let’s prepare our children for a world they deserve. Let’s deny this off-key band of people that are anti-education, anti-teacher, anti-equity, anti-history, anti-racial reckoning, anti-opportunities, anti-help people, anti-diversity, anti-platform, anti-science, anti-chan

A leader in the Virginia Parent Teacher Association who resigned after saying “let them die” during a speech attended by counter-protesters opposed to critical race theory being taught in schools says her comments were not aimed at them.
Michelle Leete, the Virginia PTA Vice President of Training, was asked to resign after she made the controversial comments in front of a crowd, according to a statement from the Virginia PTA. Leete is also a board member of the Fairfax, Virginia, NAACP.
Leete’s comments were captured in video taken outside Luther Jackson Middle School, where a Fairfax County Virginia school board meeting was held Thursday night.
