Uproar at NYC’s posh Dalton School after faculty issues 8-page anti-racism manifesto
One of NYC’s poshest private schools is in an uproar over an anti-racist manifesto signed by dozens of faculty members with a sweeping list of demands.
The Dalton School — which boasts stars Anderson Cooper, Christian Slater and Claire Danes as alumni — is wrestling with eight pages of “proposals” to overhaul the staffing, curriculum and treatment of black students.
Yearly tuition for grades K-12 at the Upper East Side institution is $54,180 a year.
The proposals — first reported this week by The Naked Dollar blog — grew out of the George Floyd police-brutality protests and long-simmering student complaints of racism at the prestigious school.
But some parents say the backlash has become oppressive.
“My ancestors experienced white supremacy by being slaughtered,” a Jewish parent told The Post. “The idea that being white automatically means you are privileged or a white supremacist is ridiculous. My child comes from people who had to fight for everything they got.
“It’s just about skin color now.”

“Hiring 12 full-time diversity officers, and multiple psychologists to support students “coping with race-based traumatic stress.”
LOL! What about the white students who are constantly harassed with this “white privilege” garbage? How many “diversity” officers and psychologists do they get?
When did “I have a dream” turn into “I’m hyper obsessed with melanin”?
Can you imagine blowing through $54,180 a year and this is what they push on your kid?
That’s exactly what it is, they are obsessed to the point of insanity.
They tried this crap at the private Christian academy I attended back in HS, a year ago. They were also bitching why our school was NOT teaching faggot studies. Our alumni is a who’s who of lie-low Christian power brokers and just a few “calls” from them scared off the education office to almost closing shop.
Are you serious? A CHRISTIAN school and they tried to push a gay agenda? What the hell is wrong with these lunatics. Let’s see them try that at an Islamic school, see what happens, they wouldn’t dare.
It has nothing to do with racism and everything to do with control.
Our current Head Master said to the parents at the tour for incoming freshmen 2 years ago “We pray first, stand for the national anthem and not pc. If you have a problem with this, do not enroll your child here. WE would rather provide a scholarship to students who think like us than take $40,000 per year from woke parents”
Outstanding
“getting paid” -which justifies and helps solidify their “profession”
Ain’t no crumb cruncher on North America who is worth $54,180 per year.
Some people just have money to burn, I guess.
We all know that there is the left and the right.. I am now beginning to realize that there is also the up and the down.. There are those who would pull you down to be like them.. I refuse to participate.. :(
Its a kind of Stockholm syndrome for white woke liberals, and NY City is ground zero.
