Should Teachers Talk About Politics During Class?

[Bartolo Ansaldi]

The article Should Teachers Talk About Politics During Class? (https://galleryteachers.com/2020/12/should-teachers-talk-about-politics-during-class/) spread an interesting debate.
Working for several schools, very often I’ve been told there are topics I can’t talk about (among others, political views, and religion), yet as Educators, I think it’s part of our job to guide our students in forming a critical opinion.

The answer to an overcomplicated society should be to talk more about sensitive topics, not avoiding them.
How do you approach topics “you shouldn’t talk about” during your classes?
