Chicago Elementary School Administers Chief Keef Lesson Plan; Parents Outraged

An elementary school in Chicago was giving students a quiz on Chief Keef’s background and criminal history. It appears a substitute teacher at Fiske Elementary School in Chicago is in some hot water after giving its students a quiz on one of the cities most popular rappers, Chief Keef. According to reports, parents are outraged after students were quizzed on knowing the background information and criminal history of the infamous Glo Gang leader. "I had never heard of him," one parent, Katrina Sanders, says. "But after careful research I found out that his music is about having sex, using the ‘B’ word, anti-police, and supporting gangs." Sanders released a YouTube video showing the test that her son was given on Chief Keef (see clip below). Questions asked in the quiz were…. Where was he placed on house arrest? Who shot Chief Keef when he was 16? What Kanye West song was Chief Keef featured on? At what age did he stop attending school? What was Chief Keef debut album? What year was “Bang” release? It’s unclear where the lesson plan came from and whether students or the substitute teacher selected Keef, but the project has since been suspended by the principal, saying this is not "age-appropriate material.
