Chauntyll Allen, a clerk for the St. Paul Public Schools Board of Education, is facing criticism after a social media post suggested that dogs should be allowed to urinate on graves in Christian cemeteries. The post, made on June 21, stated that people should 'leave indigenous land sacred and piss on the White corpses.' This remark was made amid a debate regarding the closure of Minneapolis' Minnehaha Off-Leash Dog Park, which the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board voted to close due to concerns about its proximity to a site sacred to Dakota tribes. Allen is also facing federal felony charges related to a protest at the Invasion of Cities Church in St. Paul earlier this year. The St. Paul Board of Education acknowledged awareness of the post but did not provide further comments.
