Those who believe that America is a special place where dreams can come true and everyone has the opportunity to succeed, had better keep their thoughts to themselves if they attend the University of Minnesota’s College of Education and Human Development.
A new report posted by the Race, Culture, Class and Gender Task Group of the University recommends those training to be Minnesota public school teachers must repudiate our cherished American dream.
This “Task Group” even recommends teacher candidates adopt its party line that America is “an oppressive hellhole: racist, sexist and homophobic.”
Teachers must harbor hatred and resentment for our country to satisfy the demands of the Teacher Education Redesign Initiative.
The insulting and disgusting findings of this bunch of America haters goes on to say that making new teachers “swear allegiance” to these ridiculous requirements is necessary because Minnesota’s teachers “lack of “cultural competence” contributes to the poor academic performance of the state’s minority students.“
In other words instead of teaching minority students that America is a land of opportunities they are to join children in mocking the very features of America that hold out hope to them and lie about the character of the American people.
Forget about teaching writing reading mathematics and science, Minnesota teachers are to make race class and gender the central elements in everything they teach because, while no one was looking, people who inhabit the dark fringes of life now have control over the lives of our children.

So they have substituted *self-esteem* for *self-hatred*?
That’s gonna leave a mark!
Why is there even such a thing?
I’m a George Mason University masters program education school dropout. I couldn’t stomach the anti-White curriculum and the self-loathing White faculty members. At least the non-White faculty had a reason for their hatred of Whites....they are all bona fide racists.
We don’t have to put up with this crap...
I have wondered what the U of Somalia and other muslim nations universitiesthink about the same topics?
30) Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man".
31) Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of "the big picture": Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
I’m sure they received a lot of guidance from Bill Ayers, a highly influental education establishment leader.
The Bible says the world cannot last if the fools become the kings....yet here we are paving the way for it.
Apparently the taxpayers, parents etc. of Minnesota are fine with this?
It was good advice -- but also an indication of how Leftists self-select other leftists for future education posts. The whole system is rotten.
My sister was the first in all our family to attend college (she has a master’s) I was second. We have a doctor and lawyer amongst children. America is a great place.
we must regain control of our schools.
Cheers!
You mean that there are professors in our universities that are racist? Shocking! We need to fire these white people.... er.... wait a minute, what do we do if the racists are black? Oh yeah, absolutely nothing. Welcome to America.
Cheers!
“Apparently the taxpayers, parents etc. of Minnesota are fine with this?”
Don’t forget the voters. Think Al Franken.
It isn’t different anywhere else. It just hasn’t been exposed. The education establishment is very inbred.
Voters in MN never met a socialist they didn’t admire even if he never delivers the “goodies”.
I know - my comment was rhetorical ... just as I imagine your response was.
