I have told this story before. But I think it fits here.

I spent many years teaching in urban high schools. And one day I got a packet from the Gates Foundation. It contained 30 blank applications for college scholarships. And there was an instructional sheet for me, the teacher.

I was to pass out the applications to my homeroom kids. Most of these kids came from very poor families. So this sounds really good, right? Bill Gates sure is a swell guy.

But wait. The instructional sheet had a list of kids who were eligible for this scholarship. It was an extensive list. Blacks, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, Mexican-Americans, etc.,etc.

Only one group was missing. I was not to give out any applications to kids of European descent. I guess I was supposed to just ignore them when handing out the applications.

To hell with that! I will not be a party to any racist program. I threw the entire packet in the trash.

Thanks for repeating your story as I know I can’t keep up with all the FR postings.

These leftists have been practicing systemic racism behind the curtain for years. What is more troubling is that they have been able to institutionalize it throughout all our institutions. Many Supreme Court decisions prohibiting the practices of racism at any level are all but ignored by, or now permitted by the court itself.
