Florida teenager Logan Parham spoke out Thursday about an exam question he received at St. Augustine High School on right-wing bigotry towards immigrants and minorities.

The exam question read:
Right when it appeared the nation was becoming increasingly tolerant of alternative lifestyles, immigration and minorities, the vocal and angry right wing forced the nation to make a complete _____, embracing bigotry, xenophobia and sexism.
Students were supposed to fill in the blank with a vocabulary word meaning “to turn around and face the opposition directly.”
Parham took a picture of the exam question and his mother Reanna later posted it to Facebook.
“Initially I was very shocked to first read it,” Parham said on “Fox & Friends” Thursday. “And I immediately thought how it painted the right to be what they are not. And I think it’s very unfair to make a statement like that, especially to students who may not know any better.”
“I was also shocked,” Parham’s mother added. “So I wanted to put it out there to get feedback from other parents and see if they were as shocked as I was and understanding it the same way.”
Parham is also a founding member of the Republican club at his school and said he now feels targeted.
“It just honestly makes me feel kind of targeted and threatened being that this is a teacher. And you know, I think teachers need to be teaching what teachers need to teach rather than forcing their opinions upon students who don’t know any better,” he said. “Fortunately I knew better than to take that.”
