The cool thing, in all of this, is that WE get to program them our way. At least. Here’s the thing, tho — I do genealogy. My great-grandmother came from Germany/Russia/ Brazil to Kansas, along with many of the other Volga Germans. She never went to school, never learned to read or write. One of her sister’s immigration papers was signed with a small ‘x’ and I am sure there were many who signed this way.
Her kids came home from Kindergarten, tho, and said, “We are Americans. We speak English, not German.” And THAT generation never looked back.
‘Can’t read and write’ — there are worse things. “Grateful” comes with being lifted up.
You mean in our public schools?
Great.
Adult ESL classes here in Santa Clara county program their students that the white man is the devil and immigrants need to take to the streets and demand their rights, or vote democrat, or they'll be oppressed.
At least the ones my wife attended did.
