Political Correctness = Ignorance

A California teen is speaking out after staff at her high school's yearbook mislabeled her photo with the name "Isis."

Los Osos High School student Bayan Zehlif posted a snapshot of the photo, in which she's wearing a hijab and labeled "Isis Phillips," to Facebook on Saturday.

"I am extremely saddened, disgusted, hurt and embarrassed that the Los Osos High School yearbook was able to get away with this," the eleventh grader wrote.

According to Zehlif, the school has blamed it all on an innocent mixup.

"Apparently I am "Isis" in the yearbook. The school reached out to me and had the audacity to say that this was a typo. I beg to differ, let's be real," she wrote.

Principal Susan Petrocelli has, meanwhile, publicly issued an apology to Zehlif, who she did not name.

"LOHS is taking every step possible to correct & investigate a regrettable misprint discovered in the yearbook. We sincerely apologize," Petrocelli wrote on Twitter.

Yearbook staff also publicly apologized on Twitter.

“We are extremely sorry for what occurred in the Yearbook,” the apology read in part. “We should have checked each name carefully in the book and we had no intention to create this misunderstanding.”



LOHS is taking every step possible to correct & investigate a regrettable misprint discovered in the yearbook. We sincerely apologize.
The yearbook's apology went on to call the "misunderstanding...absolutely inexcusable."

One student on the yearbook staff told ABC News that there was, in fact, a student at LOHS named Isis Phillips but that she transferred earlier in the year.

The Los Angeles chapter of CAIR, a national anti-Islamophobia group, issued a statement Sunday condemning the misprint and calling for an investigation into the matter.

"We join with the family in their concern about a possible bias motive for this incident and in the deep concern for their daughter's safety as a result of being falsely labeled as a member of a terrorist group," wrote CAIR-LA's Hussam Ayloush. "No student should have to face the humiliation of being associated with a group as reprehensible as ISIS

 

I can understand her being upset that someone elses name was used on her picture, but she and the staff at the school are too stupid to know the difference between "Isis" and "ISIS" which is just another example of the public school system being a disaster. Her parents see a chance to make some big bucks by claiming to be offended and traumatized. It's the American way!

 

Isis - is a goddess from the polytheistic pantheon of Egypt. She was first worshiped in Ancient Egyptian religion, and later her worship spread throughout the Roman Empire and the greater Greco-Roman world. Isis is still widely worshiped by many pagans today in diverse religious contexts; including a number of distinct pagan religions, the modern Goddess movement, and interfaith organizations such as the Fellowship of Isis.

Isis was worshipped as the ideal mother and wife as well as the patroness of nature and magic. She was the friend of slaves, sinners, artisans and the downtrodden, but she also listened to the prayers of the wealthy, maidens, aristocrats and rulers.[2] Isis is often depicted as the mother of Horus, the falcon-headed deity associated with king and kingship (although in some traditions Horus's mother was Hathor). Isis is also known as protector of the dead and goddess of children.
