State Sen. Glenn Grothman again grabbed headlines across the country after a press release regarding the relevancy of Kwanzaa sparked a controversial reaction from the public.

After calling Kwanzaa a fake holiday that "almost no black people care about," Sen. Glenn Grothman said he has heard a lot of positive feedback despite a negative reaction from some, including public officials. "Almost all of the private feedback has been positive," Grothman said. "First of all, people are thankful in finding out that Kwanzaa was founded by a violent, racist, Marxist — because some of them didn’t kow that. Secondly, they realized we shouldn't let such a person create a holiday … and promote it in our school system."

The curriculum of a school, is in fact funded by local, state and federal taxes, levies, Et cetera. Things being arranged so, saying that he is exploiting his position is incorrect. Voicing his opinion is an enormous part of his job, it is after all, why the people elected him. If you feel like Grothman shouldn't exercise his free speech rights why should you be allowed to?

State Sen. Glenn Grothman Declares War on Kwanzaa

The West Bend Republican calls for an end to Kwanzaa, which he describes as a fake holiday aimed at dividing blacks and whites.

OUTSIDE MILWAUKEE, WI -- Calling it a holiday that "almost no black people today care about," state Sen. Glenn Grothman is characterizing Kwanzaa as a false holiday conjured up by a racist college professor and perpetuated by hard-core liberals. "Why must we still hear about Kwanzaa?" the Republican lawmaker from West Bend asked in a press release. "Why are hard-core left wingers still trying to talk about Kwanzaa — the supposed African-American holiday celebration between Christmas and New Year’s?"
