America’s teachers demand Critical Race Theory in schools

To the surprise of no one who’s been paying attention, the National Education Association (“NEA”) has formally embraced Critical Race Theory as the goal for public schools across America. This is the culmination of a decades’ long march towards communism on the part of the men and women who are responsible for educating America’s children. Education has been thrown on the dust heap of history, with Marxist indoctrination front and center on the curricula.

I must admit to being prejudiced because I’ve been watching this leftward march amongst teachers for decades. My father was a public school teacher in the San Francisco Bay Area. He invariably returned home from union meetings absolutely livid.

Dad’s complaint was that, while the unions ought to have been concerned with improving working conditions in his very rundown school district, they were instead focused on ensuring that Black and Hispanic students were incapable of becoming successful in American society. The two most pernicious ideas – and, mind you, this was in the 1970s -- were that Black and Hispanic students shouldn’t be punished because it was racist and that Blacks should be taught in their native tongues: Ebonics for Black students and Spanish for Hispanic students.

My German Jewish father, a refugee from the Nazis, was routinely shouted down as a Nazi for standing up in meetings and saying that these ideas were lunacy. The first destroyed the classroom experience for those who wished to learn, while the second, if implemented, meant that Blacks and Hispanics would never speak the language of money and achievement. Fortunately, ordinary Californians – including most Blacks – put the kybosh on Ebonics and Spanish-language education. The decision not to discipline disruptive minority students, however, took hold and indeed made it impossible for dedicated students to learn.

The money trail must be a long one they don’t do anything unless money is tied to it.

A great history could be written on the first chapter on American Marxism: It was the great battle fought at the U. of California,Berkeley,in the nineteen fifties that pitted the neo=Communists and the anti-Stalinists. Included in the skirtmishes involved loyalty oaths, the Iron Curtain, and the Rosenburg trial. The first round ended with the death of Stalin and then Khruschev’s anti=Stalinist speech to the Soviet 20th Party Congress. The combat was re-initiated in the nineteen sixties when cowardly University instructors allowed the students to take charge of the asylum. For twenty years Berkeley was the center of a great struggle, and now, a half-century later, the radicals have prevailed.

That was a FU in your face to parents across this nation! WE need parents to start fighting back by pulling out their kids! Any parent that send their child back to school in the fall are letting those socialist teachers abuse their child. If they want to make a stand the best way to do it is to completely pull their kids from school and start looking for alternatives. I am praying real hard that the supreme court will rule for school choice for all parents across this nation. It’s time to take a stand. Hey we already did it during the corona not sending them to school and homeschooling I believe we as parents I have the whale the power and the creativity to form a homeschool center for those that do not want to send their child to school do these Marxist schools. Whether we do it now or you the white people are going to pay for it dearly with your child’s future their their health because this will affect their health and criminal threats against them just because they are white! We are trading in dangerous waters when it comes to our children’s lives via evil mental indoctrination!

This is why they're trying to propagandize your children in Critical Race Theory.

Give me the child, I will give you the man.

Some monk hundreds of years ago and every marxist punk teacher since.
