Twitter is reacting to a teacher who shared a photo of himself in his classroom in what he calls “pom pom’ shorts.
In his bio, J Michael Steel claims to be the Director of CUNY Early College at K16 Initiatives in NYC. (His account is now private)
In the tweet he said:
When it’s hot inside and outside. It’s Pom Pom shorts time. No kids were present for this blackmail photo.
see below:
People are asking him to remove the tweet because it is inappropriate and overall something he could lose his job for.
Many made the point that even if children were not present…. the classroom is a sacred and safe place… begging the question….how is this ok?

My brotha please don’t hurt yourself and your career. I’m pretty sure you worked hard to get to where you are and making a decision like this could throw all that hard work away. Please remove this photo and hopefully no one outside your school saw this besides us.
