A school has reportedly cancelled a planned speech about Islam after a teacher organising the talk received threats.

A teacher at Northeastern Middle School in Bristol, Connecticut, had invited a local Muslim woman to speak about her faith and sent a note to parents informing them of the event.


The letter, which was posted online, introduced the speaker as a New York City native who resided in Connecticut and had founded an organisation devoted to “empowerment of Muslim women”.

“This presentation will enrich our curriculum on world history,” the letter said.

But the speech was cancelled after the teacher received threats, NBC Connecticut reported.

“There were some security concerns due to threats being made at the school toward the teacher who was organizing the event,“ Bristol Mayor Ellen Zoppo-Sass told the outlet. https://www.yahoo.com/news/school-cancels-muslim-speaker-teacher-020331764.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/school-cancels-muslim-speaker-teacher-020331764.html
