Oklahoma school receives bomb threats over librarian pushing ‘woke agenda’

A Tulsa elementary school was bombarded with bomb threats after popular account Libs of TikTok reposted a librarian’s video about pushing a “woke agenda.”

Ellen Ochoa Elementary Librarian Kirby Mackenzie posted a TikTok video last week with a graphic that said, “POV: Teachers in your state are dropping like flies but you are still just not quite finished pushing your woke agenda at the public school.”

The video was quickly picked up by Libs of TikTok and reposted to Twitter with the caption: “This is an elementary school librarian in Oklahoma… She pushes a ‘woke agenda’ with an ’emphasis on social justice.’”

The video was reposted by Chaya Raichik – the owner of Libs of TikTok – without Mackenzie’s original caption, which read: “My radical liberal agenda is teaching kids to love books and be kind.”

The reposted video garnered 2.6 million views, whereas Mackenzie’s original hasn’t even hit the coveted 1 million mark.

However, shortly after Raichik reposted the video, Ellen Ochoa Elementary began receiving bomb threats.

An email, viewed by KFOR, from a sender named “Made John” said, “The innocence of children is sacred, that is a fact that has been known for the entirety of human history and the end of civilizations such as in ancient Rome are often marked by normalization pedophilia and child abuse.

“I’m not going to stand by as you b——s continue to indoctrinate and prey upon our children. This is why we placed a bomb in the school. You will evacuate the building so nobody dies.”

“Made John” also reportedly threatened to blow up Mackenzie’s home, as well.

The school delayed the start of school to bring in bomb-sniffing dogs to scope out the school grounds, Tulsa Police Department Captain Richard Muelenberg IV told KFOR.

“We lock it down. We’re going to do everything we can to make sure that area is safe because the biggest thing is these children. You got to protect your kids. More often than not, you know, this is just some person looking for attention. They want to disrupt a system,” he told the local outlet.

The following day, the school received another threat from a sender named “Yesyy,” according to KFOR.

“We placed a bomb at Ellen Ochoa Elementary. You will stop pushing this woke ideology or we will bomb every school in the union district,” the email read.

“Yesyy” also threatened Mackenzie’s home as well.

The school followed a shelter-in-place for a short time while police investigated.

“It’s become kind of a cry wolf situation now,” Muelenberg told KFOR.  “The bottom line is this is not allowable. It’s not something that’s acceptable in society. You know, you’re basically threatening the lives of innocent children who have nothing to do with whatever your problem is. That is not going to be okay and we are going to prosecute and we are going to find this person and will put them in jail.

He continued: “We’re going to find this person and we’re going to come wherever, whatever little tent you’re in right now, you know, sending your emails from. We’re going to come and find you. We’re going to arrest you.”

The Tulsa Police Department is investigating the matter and are searching for an online footprint to the emails.

Union Public Schools Chief Communications Officer Chris Payne said Mackenzie’s original message had been misconstrued and that she had “no evil agenda.”

“There’s none of that. Just very misconstrued,” he said. ‘She is one of our long-time librarians, highly respected, has done a lot of really good work at Union. We stand behind Kirby. She is a terrific employee.”

The librarian was at school this week.
