A D.C. schoolteacher will apologize after assigning students homework that prompted them to compare Adolf Hitler and former President George W. Bush using a Venn diagram.
A parent of one of the sixth-grade students told NBC Washington that the assignment presented the teacher's opinions as fact, which is unethical. Others said it was insensitive to the millions of Jews murdered by Nazis during the Holocaust.
“I think trying to compare Adolf Hitler to an America president is just not right,” one parent told the Washington Times. “I didn’t agree with Mr. Bush or his policies, but that was over the line.”
