OJ Simpson and Dennis Rodman, Black Role Models?
Today in Crazytown, USA news, three White Los Angeles teachers have been
suspended for choosing OJ Simpson, Dennis
Rodman and RuPaul as Black History Month heroes for their elementary

pictures of the three celebs--one student even donned a blond wig in
honor of RuPaul.

basketball.
