California Teachers Offered "Anti-Hate, Trump Teaching Plan" To "Empower Students"
Zero Hedge ^ | 17 November 2016 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 11/18/2016 11:59:30 AM PST by Lorianne

Following last week's dissonance-destroying victory for Donald Trump, San Francisco teachers are being offered a 'Donald Trump lesson plan' to "help students understand the election," but, as NBCBayArea reports, opponents counter that it is leftist propaganda meant to scare children about the incoming president.

:: Fakhra Shah, a teacher at Mission High School, drafted the plan with the goal of empowering students, she said.

“This is anti-hate,” Shah said. “This is not just anti-Trump.”

On the heels of Trump’s stunning Nov. 8 victory, Shah wrote a letter to staff, in which she said, “A racist and sexist man has become president.” She also urged them to use a new, optional lesson plan that will allow students to say what’s on their minds.

"It’s a call to educators to take that anti-racist stance, to take the anti-sexist stance and to tell the students, ‘We are there for you. We will talk about this,’” Shah explained.

The plan also asks teachers to tell students they don’t have to “go back to where they came from” – as fears and rumors of deportation run rampant.

According to Shah, the lesson plan is about being open regarding the President-elect’s agenda.

“I want to be clear that we are not brainwashing anyone,” Shah stressed. “This is about a dialogue.”

What did Orwell call this kind of thing?

“Two mi utes of hate?”

Trump is not racist, nor sexist, nor promotes hate...

But this man tells us ‘he is not brainwashing any one’
I’m going to get an ulcer :(

I should go back to school just so I could protest this stupidity

Everyone must ensure President Trump’s portrait hangs proudly in all the offices and public school administrative buildings in all the public school facilities and colleges.

Don’t forget to check!

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

We still have this shock at Americans voting for Trump. Some Democrats simply won’t believe it. WARM FUZZY.

Please don't lump ALL Californians together.
Remember RONALD REAGAN was the GOVERNOR of California before he became our VERY OWN POTUS.

tell students they don’t have to “go back to where they came from”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A flat out lie to the kids because, in many cases, yes, they do.

Or any state’s residents. Tons of conservatives here in red central Illinois. Lots of liberals in red states too.

It sounds like they're trying to empower themselves. It's never really about teaching kids with them.

Will those Trump hating bastards ever give up? They lost the damn election, they need to get over it and grow up.

To the Trump haters: If you are sooooooo adamant and full of hate for Trump and this country, for goodness sake LEAVE!

So students will be able to say what’s on their minds. What if one of them says “I’m thinking I hate Muslim loving teachers”.

This is nothing more than teaching left wing propaganda in our schools. If there is a single lie in anything they say, infer, or suggest they should be held liable and sued into poverty. If they utter one single word that is not true then they should lose their ability to ever teach any student again in our nation.
This is about spreading lies to our children under the cover of public education which some of my tax dollars support.
Sorry, but no, this is never going to be acceptable.
There needs to be a line of objecting parents with their lawyers at every school board meeting to make sure the school admin and the teachers know what is on the line.
