Largest Teachers' Union in United States Erases Jews From the Holocaust
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | July 23, 2025 | Alana Goodman

Posted on 07/24/2025 8:31:16 AM PDT by Racketeer

The NEA described the Holocaust as having '12 million victims' from 'different faiths' without mentioning the attempted extermination of the Jewish people

The nation's largest teachers' union plans to promote a version of Holocaust remembrance that does not mention Jews, according to its 2025 handbook, which references "victims of the Holocaust from different faiths" and teaches that Israel was founded through "forced, violent displacement and dispossession," its most recent guide for members shows.

The National Education Association, which represents nearly three million public school teachers and education workers, outlined the priorities in its 2025 handbook. The NEA publishes the document each year as a guide on the group's priorities and strategic goals for the association's national and state leaders, staff, and members. It includes the NEA's bylaws and is updated with any new resolutions and policy positions the union has endorsed.

Is the NEA trying to report truthfully without bias or is there a particular motive for it? Such a horrible time for humanity with everyone trying to kill, maim, and torture their "enemies". It would be interesting to know the real numbers of those affected, broken down by religious affiliations.

Is that too much to ask?

If 6 million of the 12 were Jews then the other 6 million must of not been worth mentioning as we only hear of one set of victims.

Sheesh, why the GOP has been dragging their feet for decades when it comes to significant school reform is one of life’s mysteries. This should be a top priority.

I must say that when I hear "six million" I'm a bit annoyed. IIRC Elly Weisel (? spelling),the famous Nazi hunter,states that there were about 11 million who died in the Holocaust,about 6 million of whom were Jews.

But OTOH you just know that when the NEA weighs in on the Holocaust their motive is antisemitism.

There were plenty of Christians. Just ask Corrie ten Boom or Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

“It wasn’t just Jews.”

Yeah we all know that .
But Jews were the prime targets and by far the most killed.

When I was in school in the 60s it was made clear the breakdown of the 12 million people which included six million non-jews. But the point was made that as heinous as this was the other 6 million were not an attempt to extinguish an entire race.

I dare say that the NEA does not recognize the 20 million Kulaks that Stalin slaughtered.

Did they list the other religions? I’m guessing Islam is not one of the religions Hitler wanted to eradicate.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer WAS a Lutheran.

Not just Jews went to the camps, anyone not Nazi crazy went vocal if they do much as looked sideways at a Nazi

They were

as AOC calls it

Deplatformed in typical reprobate leftie form.

There also were an estimated 1 to 2 million ethnic Germans killed immediately after the end of the Second World War. They were Germans who had moved into Central Europe with the Nazis.
Not saying they didn’t have it coming.
