The Virginia PTA announced Saturday that one of its officials has resigned after she was filmed at a rally making a comment that’s receiving backlash from several members of the community.
According to the association, the executive committee had “requested and received” the resignation of Michelle Leete, who they say served as Vice President of Training. She also serves as vice president for the Fairfax County chapter of the NAACP.
The Washington Post first reported that Leete was filmed saying, “let them die,” during a counter-rally against critical race theory. She was part of a group supporting transgender rights at Luther Jackson Middle School on Thursday.
