Remember this? https://blnnews.com/2025/09/20/controversy-surrounds-unit-5-board-chair-alex-williams/
Then Unit 5 Board president made a disgusting comment on Facebook.
Now he is leaving the Board. He already left Country Financial. From LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexwilliams-communicationconsulting/
.
He now claims to be an expert on misinformation and disinformation. Go back to his Facebook post in the linked story above. Williams isn’t capable of seeing either. Opinions based on ideology aren’t facts.
Good riddance.
Do I understand correctly…… he gave a little seminar on the nuances of lying? Really? And some PR gal was mightily taken with that? Really? wow
Good news for Unit 5! Maybe now they can ease up or move away completely from their CRT based Equity program and the litigation threat that the ideology brings with it. It bumps up against Civil Rights and Equal Protection Laws. I suspect that Williams would have been the main holdout to moving to a less race and sex centered educational environment
Corey Beirne-Scott will have to be more careful about the things he brings into his gradeschool classrooms now.
